MEMS (Micro-Electromechanical Systems) is a technology that integrated the mechanical elements, sensor, actuators, and

electronic on a common miniature substrates through micro fabrication technology. There are numerous current possible

applications of MEMS technologies, including:Mechanical, Aerospace, Electrical and Electronic, as well as

Chemical and Biomedical Engineering fields. However, due to the manufacturing requirements and cost

consideration on design and manufacturing, it pushedseveral limits further MEMS

applications.

FOR ENGINEERING APPLICATIONS

MEMS DEVICES:DESIGN ANDFABRICATION

ONE DAY HANDS-ON WORKSHOP ON

The recent development on textile-based MEMS technique opens more potential design and

manufacturing of a low cost MEMS device. This textile based MEMS concept has been successfully ACCEPTED

in the electronics and lab-on-a-chip societies. The objective of this workshop is to share and assist researchers and

engineers in the fields of microsystems, mechanical and electrical engineering, chemical and biomedical fields on how to design and

fabricating a low-cost MEMS system. Participants will be able to manufacture a simple MEMS device for their own future research and

academic purposes.

Facilitators

Toshiro Ohashi received B.Sc. from Tsukuba University in Japan in 1991, M.Sc. from Tsukuba University in 1994. He joined Tohoku University in Japan in 1994, serving as Research Associate from 1994 to 2002 and as Associate Professor from 2002 to 2009. During this period of time, he received Ph.D. from Tohoku University in 2000. He spent 1-year at Queen Mary University of London in the UK from 2004 to 2005 and spent 7-month at Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden in 2008 as Academic Fellow. Since 2009, he has been Full Professor at Hokkaido University in Japan. He was also appointed as Visiting Professor at Kyushu University in Japan in 2010 and as Visiting Lecturer at Kyoto University in Japan from 2012 to 2013. His main research areas involve cell/tissue biomechanics and bio-MEMS. He has published 67 peer reviewed scientific papers and has been honored with 11 national and international awards. His editorial appointments include Editor-in-Chief of Journal of Biorheology, Associate Editor of Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering and Editorial Board Member of Bio-Medical Materials and Engineering.

Dedy H.B. Wicaksono is a Senior Lecturer at the Department of Clinical Sciences, Faculty of Biosciences and Medical Engineering, FBME Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Johor Bahru, Malaysia. He is also a full time researcher at Medical Devices and Technology (MEDITEG) Research Group and associate researcher at IJN-UTM Cardiovascular Engineering Centre (CEC UTM). He holds his Ph.D. degree in 2008 from Delft University of Technology (Delft, the Netherlands) on bio-inspired MEMS. From 2008 to 2010, he was a postdoctoral researcher at TU Delft, and was working on micro-optics integration to dental drill bit. Currently, his research focus is in biomaterials, textile-based biomedical devices, and fundamental sensing theory and mechanism. He has published numerous technical papers in conference proceedings and journals in the last 11 years of his research and teaching career, including in Lab-on-a-Chip, Analyst, J. Micromech and Microengineering and Biosensors and Bioelectronics. To date he has been involved in internally and externally funded research projects on MEMS and Biomedical Engineering. He has received more than 20 International and National awards from his inventions in the field of textile-based MEMS and Microfluidics.
