From: "Ashutosh" To: Cc: Subject: [Memslist] Minutes of MEMS Group Meeting 08 July 2005 Hi, Sangjun, Xiaorong, Jiandong, Aziel, Huseyin, Joanna and I attended the meeting. Xiaorong proposed that we review specific areas instead of specific journals. We also needed a way to divide up papers from transducers 05. Both these seemed in sync. We identified the following specific areas: 1. Surface tension and Microfluidic Devices (Huseyin, Aziel, Marianne, Joanna, Ashutosh) 2. Self assembly (Jiandong, Kerwin, Xiaorong, Sangjun) 3. Optical and RF MEMS (Jiandong) 4. MEMS for Cell/DNA/Protein Assay (Ashutosh) Thus the distribution of papers from Transducers 05 was decided. We’d review the papers we select. We’d review salient references in these papers and also follow relevant work of the authors in other publications. Below is the tentative schedule of talks for the quarter: 15th July, 2005 Sangjun Talk + Lit review 29th July 2005 Floyd Talk 5th August Jiandong & Joanna Lit review 12th August Jiandong & Joanna Talks 19th August Aziel & Marianne Lit review 26th August Huseyin & Marianne Talks 2nd September Jiandong & Kerwin (yet to confirm) Lit review 9th September Aziel & Ashutosh Talks 16th September Sangjun &….. Lit review 23rd September open 30th September Ashutosh &…… Lit review Best Regards, Ashutosh
