Reflecting the rapid growth of the MEMS field and the commitment and success of its research community, the IEEE MEMS Conference series has evolved into a premier annual event in the MEMS area. In recent years it has attracted over 600 participants and has presented more than 200 select papers in non-overlapping oral and poster sessions. The 31st IEEE International Conference on Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS 2018) is one of the premier annual events reporting research results on every aspect of Microsystems technology. This Conference reflects from the rapid proliferation of the commitment and success of the Microsystems research community. In recent years, the IEEE MEMS Conference has attracted more than 700 participants, 800+ abstract submissions and has created the forum to present over 200 select papers in podium and poster/oral sessions. Its single-session format provides ample opportunity for interaction between attendees, presenters and exhibitors. MEMS 2018 will be held in Belfast, Northern Ireland, UK, from 21 - 25 January 2018.
