The 6th International Meeting on Electrowetting will provide an informal forum for discussing recent advances in the science and applications of electrowetting. The goal is to bring together key scientists and engineers, from students through established investigators, to present their recent work, define and discuss the outstanding issues, and outline research directions for the future. The meeting will imitate previous events at Mons (1999), Eindhoven (2000), Grenoble (2002), Blaubeuren (2004), and Rochester (2006) in an informal setting with a schedule balancing invited talks with contributed presentations and posters.
Invited Speakers:
Richard Fair, Duke University
Yves Fouillet, CEA Leti
Thomas Jones, University of Rochester
Kwan Hyoung Kang, Pohang University of Science and Technology
Stein Kuiper, Philips
C. J. Kim, UCLA
Frieder Mugele, University of Twente
Benjamin Shapiro, University Maryland
Aaron Wheeler, University of Toronto
Topics will include:
- theoretical and experimental investigations of electrowetting and related phenomena, such as contact angle saturation
- electric field-driven physical and chemical processes at the liquid-solid interface
- fundamentals and applications of droplet-based microfluidics in chemistry, biology and medicine
- applications of electrowetting in optics and optoelectronics
Attendance will be limited to 100 participants.
