The MEMS@MIT Center serves to unite the wide-ranging campus activities in micro\/nano systems and MEMS with forward-looking industrial organizations.\u00a0 Currently, MEMS@MIT is composed of more than 150 faculty, students, and staff working on a broad research agenda and supported by more than $15 million\/year in research sponsorship.\u00a0 The MEMS research efforts on campus focus on four overarching themes:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Materials, Processes, and Devices for MEMS – including work on piezoelectrics, magnetics, materials\/package reliability, DRIE, wafer bonding, plastic fabrication, and printed MEMS<\/li>\n
  2. Biological and Chemical MEMS – includes cell manipulation, DNA and protein processing, biomolecule detection, medical sensors, microreactors, micro gas analyzers, and microfluidics<\/li>\n
  3. Actuators and Power MEMS – includeing switches, mirrors, pumps, turbines, fuel cells, thermophotovoltaics, chemical lasers, and energy harvesting<\/li>\n
  4. Sensors, Systems, and Modeling – includes wireless sensors, pressure sensing systems, and CAD for MEMS<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Membership benefits include:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Insight into newest ideas in MEMS<\/li>\n
    • Early access to research results<\/li>\n
    • Early awareness of IP generated for licensing<\/li>\n
    • Access to high-quality continuing education materials<\/li>\n
    • Partnering for federal or other funding opportunities<\/li>\n
    • Recruitment of leading MIT graduates<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
