Session 4: Microfluidics Technologies

Chairs: Magdalena Schimke, Ph.D., STRATEC Consumables

Microfluidics has revolutionized the ability to manipulate and assay biological samples to make measurements with high precision and high accuracy while leveraging the key advantages of small volume fluid physics.  This session will highlight advances of microfluidic technologies for single cell analysis, cell sorting, molecular and point of care diagnostics.
