DESCRIPTION:A range of experts from around the world\nSymposium Latsis EPF
 L 2016 \n\nStudies of living organisms like nematodes and invertebrate emb
 ryos in controlled spatio-temporal chemical environments on microfluidic c
 hips are gaining momentum\, as these animals offer genetic amenability\, l
 ow-cost\, and culture conditions that are compatible with large-scale scre
 ens\, while not raising ethical issues. The 2.5-day Latsis Symposium wants
  to bridge the gap between microfluidic systems and biological model organ
 ism research\, by providing an interdisciplinary forum on the technology a
 nd applications of microfluidic systems for studies of multicellular organ
 isms in medicine and biology. Invited and Contributed Presentations cover 
 the topics of microfluidic technologies\, organism (neuro-)biology\, on-ch
 ip manipulation and imaging\, development studies\, screening\, and in viv
 o diagnostic applications.\n\nSpeakers:\nAdela Ben-Yakar\, University of T
