About The Conference
Welcome to Microfluidic Horizons 2026, hosted by the University of Padua, one of the pioneering incubators of microfluidics in Italy. For over two decades, we have been at the forefront of microfluidic research, fostering interdisciplinary collaborations and pushing the boundaries of what is possible at the microscale, both in fundamental science and real-world applications.
This conference aims to build upon this legacy, bringing together brilliant experts from around the world to share ideas, present cutting-edge research, and forge new collaborations. Through plenary talks, oral and poster sessions, and interactive discussions, we aim to catalyze the next wave of microfluidic innovations while strengthening connections within the global scientific community and inspiring future advancements across the field and beyond in the years to come, fostering lasting impact and continued progress.
