BioMEMS (Biomedical Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) has emerged as a subset of MEMS devices for applications in biomedical research and biological microdevices.
BioMEMS devices take advantage of several intrinsic characteristics of microfluidics, including laminar flow, low consumption of costly reagents, minimal handling of hazardous materials, short reaction times required for analysis, multiple-sample detection in parallel, portability, and versatility in design.
In our laboratory, we use advanced microfabrication and microsystem strategies to produce bioelectronic platforms such as biosensors and biofuel cells, with an emphasis on compact, high-performance, and application-ready biomedical devices.
