New cell manipulation technology enables highly accurate isolation of rare cell populations in complex biological samples

Researchers have developed a rapid, automatable, chip-based platform to analyze live cells

Researchers are developing a first-of-its-kind 3D model that uses a single microfluidic sensing chip to study the complicated processes that take place in malaria-infected placenta as well as other placenta-related diseases and pathologies

DroNc-Seq—a technology that merges single-nucleus RNA sequencing with microfluidics—brings new scale to gene expression studies in complex tissues

Device is the first to provide rapid, point-of-care measurement of the immune system's response, without any need to process the blood

Miniature, personalized reproductive system will test drugs for safety, effectiveness in women

"This is a unique platform to study interactions between drugs and cells or tissues, specifically in the kidney, where current models were lacking," researcher said

Technique could accelerate the development and use of gene therapies for such killers as heart disease, cancer, and Parkinson’s disease

"We have achieved 300-nanometer patterns, but we could easily make them as small as several tens of nanometers"

The future of chemistry and biology is barely visible to the eye: it's hundreds and thousands of microdroplets, whizzing through thin tubules of microfluidic devices
