However,
the
road
from
discovery
to
full
commercial-
ization
has
been
long
due
to
the
time
required
to
develop
the
technology.

is

of

Development,
the
future
of
MEMS
is
bright,
with
an
anticipated
growth
of
∼
15%
per

BioMEMS
are
poised
to
lead
this
continued
growth
and
perhaps
push
it
to
new
highs.
