About the Workshop
Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) and Nano Electro Mechanical Systems (NEMS) are
miniature systems integrating electrical, mechanical, optical, chemical and/or
biological components that are fabricated via integrated circuit or other
related manufacturing techniques. This is a highly multi-disciplinary field.
Research in and applications of MEMS/NEMS will shape the basis for the creation
of technologies that will impact diverse areas such as information technology,
biomedical technology, energy, transportation, robotics, manufacturing, deep
space studies, and national security. The following one day workshop will be
held to facilitate communication and collaboration among MEMS/NEMS researchers
in the NYC metro area.
