Toward Secure and Trustworthy Cyberphysical Microfluidic Biochips

Technological shifts in the fields of microfluidics and security are now converging. New techniques in microfluidics increasingly rely on cyberphysical integration and concepts from computer-aided design automation to provide ease-of-use, reliability, and higher throughput. Meanwhile, security concerns are extending beyond traditional information technologies as low-cost computing and sensing proliferates into an ever-increasing number of devices. This keynote paper highlights recent findings and trends in these field to motivate research in the nascent field of cyberphysical microfluidic biochip security and trust.
