The aim of this project is to develop and establish a state-of-the-art fluorescence imaging facility. It aims to establish a total internal reflection fluorescence microscope combined with high speed epifluorescence imaging workstation that will be tailored to specifically investigate the fundamentals of blood cell, and vascular cell function. The project forms part of a broad bioengineering research program aimed at developing novel lab-on-chip technologies for basic cell biology and haematology. Outcomes from these projects may have significant impact in fundamental research in both bioengineering and biology disciplines.Read moreRead less

Summary
Lab-on-a-chip platforms for hemodynamics research: new approaches for the study of blood diseases. This project will use advanced microfluidic technologies to study how and why blood clotting occurs. New devices will be created that can precisely analyse the ability of blood to form clots and these will become powerful tools for the diagnosis of blood disorders and the research and validation of drugs for the treatment of these disorders.
