Although many intricate microfluidic devices have been created in academic laboratories around the world, far fewer have been commercialized for wider use. But several efforts are underway to ...
Since its inception in 1990, the RIT Thermal Analysis and Microfluidics lab has been driven by a keen desire to examine the fundamental phenomena related to microscale fluid mechanics and dynamics.
This device is now widely regarded as the first Lab-on-a-Chip although this term had not been coined at this point. Researchers now realized that microfluidics had the potential to enable the ...
And what the heck is bio-convergence, anyway? It's where biology, engineering and artificial intelligence converge.
3 Microfluidic systems greatly aided researchers in exploring applications from structural biology, such as protein crystallization, lab-on-a-chip, and beyond. 4 While this technology powered many ...
A team of researchers from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a ...
At Texas A&M University, one research lab is changing the game of droplet microfluidics, a technique that involves conducting experiments in nanoscale droplets of liquid in a controlled environment.
Originally developed in the Wheeler lab, the DropBot system is an open-source project that works towards making digital microfluidic devices more accessible. We first visited the Wheeler lab at the ...
The lab has engineered a viscoelastic microfluidic platform for label-free, high-resolution isolation of circulating tumor cells and extracellular vesicles. Additionally, a thermophoretic microfluidic ...
