LifeChips Program
Our mission is to promote and enable research and education in efforts that combine life science and technology at micro and nano-scales. Furthermore, LifeChips program at UC Irvine intends to promote the dissemination of LifeChips work into the public sector to increase public understanding and create economic opportunity. With this overall vision and specific mission in mind, we identify the several goals for the center. These can be divided into three components of the LifeChips center: Education, Research and Outreach to our Community and Industry.
