Session 1: Miniaturization for Screening Applications

Chair: Etienne Croquette, M.Eng. (Optimation UK)

Micro-compartmentalization strategies that go beyond the ubiquitous use of the microtiter plates is an area of rapid growth. This session will focus on technologies that apply microfluidics and pico/nano-scale platforms to enable drug discovery efforts.

Speakers:

Self-Assembly for Next-Generation DNA Data Storage?
Casey Platnich, Ph.D. (University of Cambridge)

The Art of Microdispensing: A Multimedia Journey into Picoliter and Nanoliter Droplets
Mario Nitzche (M2 Automation)

Microscale Well Arrays: A Window into Single-cell Dynamics
Niklas Sandstrom, Ph.D. (KTH Royal Institute of Technology)
