台湾大学范士冈副教授学术讲座
应能源与动力工程学院及热流科学与工程教育部重点实验室的邀请，台湾大学范士冈副教授将于2014年12月16日来我校做微流体方面的学术讲座，欢迎各位老师和同学参加。
讲座题目：Constructing Heterogeneous Microcomponents On an
Electro-Microfluidic Platform
讲座时间：12月16日（周二）上午9：00－10：30
讲座地点：东三楼东汽报告厅
讲座摘要：Synthesis and assembly of multi-functional, heterogeneous, and encoded microcomponents, or building blocks, are essential to engineering hierarchical, complex, and three--‐dimensional structures. The elaborately organized architectures devise metamaterials that hold new physical properties unusual in nature or artificial tissues that recapitulate physiological functions by imitating natural and biological arrangements. Here we demonstrate synthesis and assembly of microcomponents by electrowetting--‐on--‐dielectric (EWOD) and dielectrophoresis (DEP) on a robotic electro--‐microfluidic platform. The platform is capable of (1) driving different droplets of hydrogel prepolymers before cross--‐linking, (2) arranging particles or cells in the droplets, and (3) forming microcomponents by cross--‐linking droplets in different shapes. In the
presentation, we will demonstrate the synthesis and assembly of different hydrogel microcomponents containing different dyes and particles. The heterogeneous structures with cell adhesive GelMA (gelatin methacrylate) and
non--‐adhesive PEG--‐DA (Poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate) surfaces are prepared for cell culture. The culture of fibroblasts NIH/3T3, neonatal mouse cardiomyocyte, and endothelia HUVEC on the engineered structures synthesized and assembled on the robotic electro-microfluidic platform will be reported.
