GdR-MNF 2026: Micro and Nano Fluidics national days

On October 12^th-13^th 2026, the FEMTO-ST Institute is organizing the annual conference of the Micro and Nano Fluidics Research Group (GdR MNF) in Besançon.

Microfluidics and nanofluidics, sciences and technologies dedicated to the study and control of fluids on a small scale, play an essential role in the future of many scientific and economic sectors, such as medical diagnostics, pharmacology, chemical engineering, and oil exploration. The French scientific community working on these interdisciplinary projects will gather this year to discuss topics such as microfluidics and microrobotics, actuated and instrumented microphysiological systems, organ on chip, microfluidics for diagnostic and nanofluidics for cell biology.

Scientific program: 4 renowned international guests (Massimo Mastrangeli (Associate professor at Technological University Delft, Netherlands), Pierre Nassoy (Directeur de recherche CNRS, Directeur du groupe BioImaging and Optofluidics, Bordeaux), Federica Caselli (Associate professor of Bioengineering at the University of Roma "Tor Vergata", Italy) and Carlotta Guiducci (EPFL, Lausanne)), 2 speakers winners of the GdR MNF thesis award, oral and poster presentations selected by our scientific committee, with an emphasis on presentations by doctoral and postdoctoral researchers. A Young Researcher Poster Award will be presented thanks to the support of our sponsor, IFPEN.

Abstracts must be submitted by September 4, 2026, and registrations by September 15, 2026 (a one-week extension is planned) (free admission to the conference; €25 participation fees for the gala).
