Abstract

<P><SPAN id=ctl00__eventBody__lblEventAbstract>Biochips provide interfaces between living systems and electro&#8211;mechanical and computational devices&#046; These chips may be used in such varied applications as artificial sensors, prosthesis, portable/disposable laboratories or even as implantable devices to enhance human life&#046; Biochips promise dramatic changes in future medical science and human life in general&#046; With the advances of bio and nano technologies two strong paradigms of integrated electronic and life are emerging&#046; Biosensor chips can provide the construction of sophisticated human sensing systems such as nose and ears&#046; The second paradigm is chips for sensing biology that will provide for interactions with living bodies and build new diagnosis tools (such as diabetes glucose meters) or new medicines (such as a bio&#8211;assay chip)&#046; This full&#8211;day workshop brings together key researchers from the fields of biochip technologies and applications to understand the potential of these new bio inspired chips&#046; The program includes a keynote to present strategic directions, two technical sessions to explore state&#8211;of&#8211;the&#8211;art research, and a panel session to discuss major implication of these new technologies on our lives&#046; </SPAN></P><B>Keywords:</B>
