Short Courses At InnoLAE 2024

On Tuesday 20 February, the day before the main conference, we are running a programme of technical short courses covering key topics.

We have a slot available on Tuesday morning for equipment vendors or academics who would like to cover a technical topic. Please contact us info@innolae.org

Organic Bioelectronics

20 February 2024 (AM)

This course will cover what bioelectronics is and why it holds so much promise for meeting today's unmet medical needs, with a focus on organics, a class of materials extremely suitable for the fabrication of state-of-the-art bioelectronic devices. In this context, we will discuss why conducting polymers’ unique set of features allowed them to enter the world of bioelectronics, giving rise to the era of Organic Bioelectronics.

Bioelectronic Devices Based on Electrical Double-Layers

20 February 2024 (PM)

The Bioelectronic Devices Based On Electrical-Double-Layers: Fundamentals, Characterisation & Design course focuses on electrical methods to characterise devices that use electrical double-layers for bioelectronic sensing. These devices encompass a wide array of applications, such as skin-adherent devices for monitoring physiological changes on the skin's surface or electrophysiological signals. A critical aspect of developing these types of bioelectrical devices lies in understanding the design principles that yield optimal sensing performance. This involves careful consideration of device geometry and a judicious selection of materials used in their fabrication, which will be covered in this course.

Wet Processing Technologies for LAE

20 February 2024 (PM)

This course covers the inks and printer technology required for deposition techniques including screen, inkjet and flexo/gravure printing. The short course also covers coating techniques such as doctor blade and slot die, drawdown, spin and spray coating. In each case the advantages, disadvantages and technological challenges of each technique will be covered, along with issues arising in scale up for manufacture.
