Disease-on-a-Chip

Microchip

The activity is to show how microfluidic models are used within the lab to study disease. We will have PDMS blocks with tubing going through the models where a child or adult can push food coloring through the model to simulate media flow which we would do typically within the lab setting. We will also incorporate a poster to display the labs progress within our research area.
