BMF and AIP Journals at the 2010 APS March Meeting

| No Comments

Biomicrofluidics was represented at the 2010 APS March Meeting in Portland, Oregon from March 14-18.

There were several interesting sessions related to the journal. Here are a few highlights:

  • Alex Levine from UCLA talked about "Cell Quakes: Mechanics and Microrheology of Living Cells and Active Gels".
  • Dennis Wirtz, John Hopkins University gave his overview of "Intracellular Fluid Dynamics.".
  • Cindy Harnett from the University of Louisville presided over a session on Microfluidic Devices, where mechanical actuators—including propellers, paddles, and wheels—were discussed along with several other bio-related flow research.
  • Richard Fair, Duke University, talking about "Electrowetting Control of Droplets for Biomedical Applications on Chips".

The days were filled with lots of interactions between students, APS and AIP editors, and researchers from all sorts of fields.

What sorts of interesting stories or experiences did you have at APS this year? Anything "microfluidic?" "fabri-tastic?"
