Stanford Bio-X Center for Biological Microfluidics

  

Overview of Services

 

Welcome to the Stanford Bio-X Center for Biological Microfluidics (SCBM)

 The SCBM (formerly known as the Stanford Microfluidics Foundry) leverages Stanford’s unique strengths across clinical medicine, the basic life sciences, and engineering to help researchers design, alter, fabricate, and test simple microfluidic devices for interdisciplinary research.

 
 

We provide the following services:

  • Training in photolithography and soft lithography for microfluidic devices
  • Access to facility and equipment for custom molds by trained users
  • Access to facility and equipment for custom devices by trained users
  • Fabrication of custom molds and devices - dependent on staff availability

Publication Acknowledgement

 

As with all Stanford Service Centers, credit must be given to the Stanford Microfluidics Foundry for data that results in a publication. If the work done at Microfluidics Foundry produces data resulting in a figure in a publication, you are required to acknowledge Microfluidics Foundry in the publication. Further, if Microfluidics Foundry staff members provided significant experimental design, data interpretation, or other intellectual contribution (as evaluated by the PI), then it is expected that these individuals will be coauthors on the publication.
