Meet the plenary speakers for the Micro Flow and Interfacial Phenomena (µFIP) Conference

14 Jun 2024

PAIR Distinguished Lecture Series

The 2024 Micro Flow and Interfacial Phenomena (µFIP) Conference is taking place on 21–24 June 2024 on PolyU campus. The Conference brings together academic, research and industry communities coming from fields of thermodynamics, fluidics, bio-chemical and bio-medical engineering, and microfluidics, for interdisciplinary exchange with a focus on energy applications involving microchannel flow or microscale surface phenomena.

We are thrilled to introduce the seven Plenary Speakers, who are distinguished scientists from around the world, including winner of the Nobel Prize, as well as members of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, National Academy of Sciences, and National Academy of Engineering. They will share on some major scientific puzzles and breakthroughs in their fields.

The plenary presentations will be broadcast live on various social media platforms of PAIR on the day of the event. Please subscribe to PAIR social media channels to receive the latest updates about the Conference!
