104108Krishnendu Chakrabarty This award supports the U.S.-India Planning Visit: Collaborative Research on Algorithms for Digital Microfluidic Biochips. Professors K. Chakrabarty, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Duke University and Bhargab Bhattacharya, Advanced Computing and Microelectronics, Indian Statistical Institute (ISI), Kolkata, India intend to identify collaborative research directions on algorithms for the optimization of digital microfluidic biochips. The initial focus will be on dilution and mixing of liquids on a biochip. Prof. Chakrabarty from Duke University brings to this collaboration his expertise on digital microfluidics and chip design. Prof. Bhattacharya is an expert on design and analysis of algorithms. The proposed collaboration will explore new algorithms and optimization techniques for making digital microfluidic biochips more efficient and practical for healthcare applications. The planning visit will lead to a longer-term collaborative research proposal to be submitted to the National Science Foundation (NSF) and to the Department of Science and Technology (DST) in India for consideration under the NSF-DST Joint Program. In the follow-up research proposal, t, PhD students from both countries will work in close collaboration. In addition to receiving interdisciplinary education and training in different aspects of biochip design, US students will gain professional experience and cultural exposure beyond the nation?s borders.

104108Krishnendu Chakrabarty 该奖项支持美国-印度计划访问：数字微流控生物芯片算法的合作研究。杜克大学电气与计算机工程系的 K. Chakrabarty 教授和印度加尔各答印度统计研究所 (ISI) 高级计算和微电子学部门的 Bhargab Bhattacharya 教授打算确定数字微流控生物芯片优化算法的合作研究方向。最初的重点将是生物芯片上液体的稀释和混合。杜克大学的 Chakrabarty 教授为这次合作带来了他在数字微流体和芯片设计方面的专业知识。 Bhattacharya教授是算法设计和分析方面的专家。拟议的合作将探索新的算法和优化技术，使数字微流控生物芯片在医疗保健应用中更加高效和实用。 此次计划访问将产生一项长期合作研究提案，该提案将提交给美国国家科学基金会 (NSF) 和印度科学技术部 (DST)，供 NSF-DST 联合计划审议。 在后续的研究计划中，两国博士生将密切合作。 除了接受生物芯片设计不同方面的跨学科教育和培训外，美国学生还将获得跨国界的专业经验和文化接触。
