What are your research or development interests?

• We are developing a new class of bioarrays based
  on laser array patterning of surfaces.
• Advantages of Laser Array Modification of
  Surfaces
• Extreme speed of functionalization (nanoseconds)
• Precise positioning of surface features
• Massively Parallel Surface Patterning Make tens,
  hundreds, or thousands of spots simultaneously
• Uniformity of spots
• Easy immobilization of a range of proteins
• Thin protein films are nanometers thick
• Stability of adsorbed proteins
• Various resist layers possible (hydrophilic and
  hydrophobic monolayers)
• Compatible with a wide range of bioconjugate
  chemistries

What collaborations are we seeking?

• We seek mutually beneficial collaborations in
  industry and academia.
• A collaboration with us should result in improved
  array technology for your organization.
