Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) hydrogel undergoes significant but precise changes in size between 20°C and 40°C, making it an excellent candidate for use in variable-size deterministic lateral ...

The field of genomic research has undergone a remarkable transformation with the rapid expansion of high-quality genome databases, the discovery of epigenetic factors and the advent of CRISPR–Cas ...

The capability to sort single cells of interest and to deeply characterize them has greatly added to our understanding of biology and disease states. Indeed, cell sorting has become an indispensable ...

Optical sorting combines optical tweezers with diverse techniques, including optical spectrum, artificial intelligence (AI) and immunoassay, to endow unprecedented capabilities in particle sorting. In ...

Researchers have discovered a novel criterion for sorting particles in microfluidic channels, paving the way for advancements in disease diagnostics and liquid biopsies. Using the supercomputer ...

Channel-Free Single-Cell Sorting in Air with Tunable Paths. Schematic illustration of the in-air microfluidic single-cell sorting platform. Cell suspensions are encapsulated into droplets and ejected ...

An electromagnetic device can gently sort cells by levitating them to different heights. It looks like a magic trick: cells at the bottom of a liquid medium begin levitating, then hovering at a ...

This article is based on a poster originally authored by Barbie Wang, Maria Giebler, Adrian Freeman, Karen Hogg, Adam Corrigan and Hitesh Sanganee. This poster is being hosted on this website in its ...

Stanford Medicine researchers invent an electromagnetic device that can gently sort different types of cells by levitating them to different heights. It looks like a magic trick: Cells at the bottom ...

In the early 1960s, Mack Fulwyler joined the lab of Marvin Van Dilla at the Los Alamos National Laboratory as an engineer to study the effect of fallout radiation from nuclear weapons testing on ...

The generation of durable CD8+ T cell memory following infection or vaccination is essential for protection against future encounters with the same or related pathogens. This process has traditionally ...

Using an array of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) micropillars whose size varies precisely with temperature, this device can be precisely tuned to sort cells across a range of sizes.
