This volume contains 18 chapters focused on ‘Biomolecular Sensing, Processing and Analysis’, written by experts in the field of BioMEMS and biomedical nanotechnology. The chapters are groups into three broad categories of Sensors and Materials, Processing and Integrated Systems, and Microfluidics.Prof. Taun Vo-Dinh from Oakridge National Labs begins the Sensors and Materials section by providing a review of biosensors and biochips. This review is followed by an example of mechanical cantilever sensor work described by Prof. Arun Majumdar’s group at UC Berkeley and Prof. Tom Thundat at Oakridge National Laboratory.
