CHiBi is an emerging, multidisciplinary group of investigators who develop and apply high-throughput methods in a variety of biological systems. We are located in the Network for Centres of Excellence (NCE) and Michael Smith Laboratories buildings on the UBC Point Grey campus in beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia.

This clean room facility, for the design and fabrication of microfluidic devices, was constructed within the NCE building with financial support from Western Economic Diversification, Genome BC and the University of B.C. and is under the direction of Dr. Carl Hansen. In addition to supporting the nanofabrication needs of CHiBi researchers, this hub also provides support on a fee-for-service and/or contractual basis to the Centre for Drug Research and Development (CDRD), the Advanced Materials and Processing Engineering Laboratory (AMPEL) at UBC and the Institute for Systems Biology (ISB) in Seattle.
