Carnot IPGG Microfluidique
The current period poses immense challenges for the society, particularly in the fields of health, energy, access to water and environment. Innovation in these strategic areas require major technological and scientific advances. The Carnot fields, i.e. milli- micro- and nanofluidics, complex fluids under flow and flow chemistry, are at the center of scientific progress to overcome these challenges.
