µFO

The Microfluidics in Biomedical Sciences Student Organization (μFO) at the University of Michigan is an academic, career, and social support network that targets university students working in the fields of microfluidics and micro/nano technology. We aim to:

1) Increase cross-disciplinary collaborations and increase student-faculty-industry interactions

2) Expose pre-college and undergraduate students to skill sets necessary for entry into microfluidics and micro/nano technology

To achieve our aims, we sponsor visiting faculty and industry representatives to speak as part of the Microfluidics in Biomedical Sciences Training Program (MBSTP) Seminar Series. We also host various outreach events centered on microfluidics. Our sponsorship and outreach activities are generously funded by Rackham Interdisciplinary Workshops.
