Microelectronics, Which Has Led To The Explosion Of Consumer Electronics
Sales, Can Now Bring Its Added Value To Life Science Applications. The Key
Challenge For Microelectronics Is To Make Complexity Invisible And Adapt It
To The Value Chain And Way Of Working To The Life Science Industries
Microsystems technologies are changing the Life Sciences industry. New in-vitro diagnostic systems, new therapy strategies, genetic diseases
treatment, targeted and intelligent drug delivery, artificial pancreas, drug discovery processes… are healthcare improvements promised to
future generations, enabled by semiconductor and MEMS technologies. The Life Sciences industry already faces critical challenges in
addressing this expected market.
To take part in this innovation process, it is very important to understand the technology and industrial trends by having a good knowledge of
currently used technologies, their limits and advantages, their applications and the way the Life Sciences industry currently works. Indeed, Life
Science is a broad field including industries like drug discovery, in-vitro diagnostics, medical devices, instrumentation… In the same way, the
market is segmented by applications, technologies and specific medical use.
Yole’s BioMEMS 2008 report answers the question: How Microsystems and Semiconductor companies can become key suppliers to the
Life Sciences field?
The report will enable you to:
- Understand the Life Science market and define your strategy to address it
