The goal of the Biomolecular Nanotechnology Center is to foster interdisciplinary collaboration across the UC Berkeley campus and the broader academic and industrial community in order to design, fabricate, and evaluate micro- and nano-scale devices for medicine and biology. To that end, the center aims to: Combine facilities for CAD, modeling, fabrication, analysis, and testing with biological specimens; Encourage multidisciplinary collaborations among Biologists, Chemists, Engineers, Material Scientists, and Physicists; Provide a training lab for undergraduate and graduate students to gain hands-on experience in creating microfluidic biomedical devices; Give researchers insight into the commercial diagnostics consumer marketplace through industrial partnership; Encourage non-conventional micro/nano fabrication techniques, complementing existing Microlab and CITRIS facilities at UC Berkeley.
