DESCRIPTION:Prof. George Malliaras\, Department of Bioelectronics\, Cent
 re Microélectronique de Provence\, France.\nThe emergence of organic ele
 ctronics has brought to the forefront materials and devices that are ideal
 ly suited to interface electronics with biology: The “soft” nature of 
 organics offers better mechanical compatibility with tissue than tradition
 al electronic materials\, while their natural compatibility with mechanica
 lly flexible substrates suits the curvilinear form of organs. More importa
 ntly\, the ability of these materials to conduct both electronic and ionic
  charges opens up a new communication channel with biology. Examples will 
 be presented of the application of organic electronics in neuroscience\, t
 issue engineering\, and medical diagnostics\, while the implications for t
 he design of materials and devices will be highlighted.
