title = "Electrical and fluidic interface of a polymeric microfluidic device with printed circuit board",
abstract = "A method is presented for interfacing polymeric microfluidic chips to printed circuit boards for automated data acquisition. Our world-to-chip interface connects a microfluidic patch clamp array chip to a personal computer. The combined system forms an automated electrophysiology platform. Both electrical and mechanical interconnects are positioned vertically, while microfluidic components are found in the horizontal plane of the chip. Although our interface is presented as part of an electrophysiology system, it may be generalized to similar devices that require electrical and fluidic interfacing.",
