Droplet microfluidics for biomolecular condensate phase diagrams

Abstract "The assembly of biomolecules into condensates is a fundamental process underlying the organisation of the intracellular space and the regulation of many cellular functions. Mapping and characterising phase behaviour of biomolecules is essential to understand the mechanisms of condensate assembly, and to develop therapeutic strategies...

Microfluidic quantification of heterogeneity of bacterial populations

Microfluidic quantification of heterogeneity of bacterial populations

Abstract "Severe non-healing infections are often caused by multiple pathogens or by genetic variants of the same pathogen exhibiting different levels of antibiotic resistance. For example, polymicrobial diabetic foot infections double the risk of amputation compared to monomicrobial infections. Although these infections lead to increased morbidity...

Programmable droplet microfluidic

Machine learning-guided droplet microfluidic platform

Abstract "Typical microfluidic devices are application-specific and have to be carefully designed to implement the necessary functionalities for the targeted application. Programmable microfluidic chips try to overcome this by offering reconfigurable functionalities, allowing the same chip to be used in multiple different applications. In this work,...
