Call it the science of small, but a trio of University of Florida chemical engineers have developed a lab-on-a-chip process that could make a big difference for DNA research and, ultimately, patients.

Years ago, prototyping microfluidic systems was a long, time-intensive task. With inspiration from DIY PCB fabrication techniques, that time is now greatly reduced. However, even with the ...

At Texas A&M University, one research lab is changing the game of droplet microfluidics, a technique that involves conducting ...

Perhaps our future overlords won’t be made up of electrical circuits after all but will instead be soft-bodied like ourselves. However, their design will have its origins in electrical analogues ...

Purification removes contaminants from DNA samples, ensuring the integrity of the genetic material and providing more ...

A team led by the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) and the Hospital del Mar Research Institute has developed ...

Often, microfluidic devices and systems are designed to replicate or model the behaviors observed in natural systems. For example, microfluidic devices can be engineered to replicate the behavior of ...

For the first time, CAR-T cells have been successfully produced using a fully automated, end-to-end microfluidic system, delivering the proof of concept for our purpose-built benchtop cell factory." ...

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 ...
