Diseases such as chronic pain with complex etiologies are unlikely to respond to single, target-specific therapeutics but rather require intervention at multiple points within a perturbed disease system. Such approaches are being enabled by the rise ...
One of the main limitations preventing the realization of a successful dialogue between the brain and a putative enabling device is the intricacy of brain signals. In this perspective, closed-loop in vitro systems can be used to investigate the inter...
Affordable and physiologically relevant three-dimensional (3D) cell-based assays used in high-throughput screening (HTS) are on the rise in early drug discovery. These technologies have been aided by the recent adaptation of novel microplate treatmen...
The manufacture of biotherapeutic proteins consists of complex upstream unit operations requiring multiple raw materials, analytical techniques, and control strategies to produce safe and consistent products for patients. Raman spectroscopy is a ubiq...
Organoid cultures are proving to be powerful in vitro models that closely mimic the cellular constituents of their native tissue. Organoids are typically expanded and cultured in a 3D environment using either naturally derived or synthetic extracellu...
Organ chips can recapitulate organ-level (patho)physiology, yet pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analyses require multi-organ systems linked by vascular perfusion. Here, we describe an 'interrogator' that employs liquid-handling robotics, custom s...
Uncovering the heterogeneity of cellular populations and multicellular constructs is a long-standing goal in fields ranging from antimicrobial resistance to cancer research. Emerging technology platforms such as droplet microfluidics hold the promise...

The study aims to lay a foundational probe for the thorough application microfluidic chips in brain function research with microfluidic chips. Neuron slide culture is a common culture method , and the microfluidic chip with the artificial network pa...
Artificial neural network (ANN) models can be trained to simulate the dynamic behavior of biological systems. In the present study, an ANN model was developed upon multilayer perceptron neural network architecture with 23-20-1 configuration to predic...
Although label-free cell sorting is desirable for providing pristine cells for further analysis or use, current approaches lack molecular specificity and speed. Here, we combine real-time fluorescence and deformability cytometry with sorting based on...
