We are in the process of developing a Microsystems fabrication laboratory and a team of researchers with the overall goal of being able to do cutting edge research in the areas of BioMEMS, Lab on a chip and Microfluidics based approaches to diagnose and detect clinical samples etc. We also evaluate the various Nano-technological approaches to synthesize smart materials which would be able to perform rapid sensing of gases, biological agents, physical parameters like temperature, pressure, explosions and combustion at the nanoscale with novel nanoenergetic materials etc. and interface these technologies with Microsystems. The vision of our research is to work in interdisciplinary areas of engineering and Life sciences and also to develop a team of researchers and workforce of the 21st century who can walk easily into a variety of domains of science and technology.
