The spatial organization and cellular microenvironment of the cells can be very important when it comes to RNA sequencing. Therefore, preserving the spatial organization of the cells and monitoring the changes in the cellular surrounding can be crucial for transcriptomic profiling. Droplet-based microfluidics is an...
Scale-down reactors are essential for generating data on small scale and applying the observed improvement to larger and industrial scales. Microfluidic devices can be of great use in this sense. The reaction conditions could be carefully monitored while the volume of the reaction is scaled...
Abstract "At the single-cell level, cellular parameters, gene expression and cellular function are assayed on an individual but not population-average basis. Essential to observing and analyzing the heterogeneity and behavior of these cells/clusters is the ability to prepare and manipulate individuals. Here, we demonstrate a versatile...
Abstract "Anti-cancer therapies often exhibit only short-term effects. Tumors typically develop drug resistance causing relapses that might be tackled with drug combinations. Identification of the right combination is challenging and would benefit from high-content, high-throughput combinatorial screens directly on patient biopsies. However, such screens require a...
Abstract "Microfluidic designs are versatile examples of technology miniaturisation that find their applications in various cell biology research, especially to investigate the influence of environmental signals on cellular response dynamics. Multicellular systems operate in intricate cellular microenvironments where environmental signals govern well-orchestrated and robust responses, the...
