Microfluidic platform

Savina Cammalleri discusses extending DISCO, a digital microfluidic platform for single-cell omics, to protein analysis. The work uses controlled handling of individual cells and samples to make proteomic measurements more efficient and scalable. The presentation considers how a flexible microfluidic approach can support studies of variation between cells and the molecular processes underlying that variation. Its goal is to broaden the experimental tools available for biological measurements at single-cell resolution. Cammalleri is a doctoral researcher in biomedical engineering at the Univer

…MIMETAS OrganoPlate® is a microfluidic platform that enables perfused, 3D culture of up to 96 tissues in parallel in a membrane-free manner. The microfluidic channels allow growth of perfused tubular endothelial structures. Furthermore, the system allows for automation, enabling higher through

In each chip, a perfused HBMEC vessel was grown against an extracellular matrix gel in a membrane-free manner.
