As the NextGenMicrofluidics OITB project comes to a close, we invite you to a final event as a satellite of the Health Tech Hub (HTH) Styria at the MedUniGraz. The event in the afternoon of March 26th, 2025, will showcase technological breakthroughs from the NGM project and bring together experts from the field of microfluidics. A hands-on demonstrator showcase and networking event “MicroFluids and MicroBites” will allow participants ample time to learn about this dynamic community.
Location: Aula, MED CAMPUS Graz, Neue Stiftingtalstraße 6, 8010 Graz, Austria
