But don’t expect microfluidics to solve everything. Back in 2012, Professor Nikos Hardavellas (see box) predicted the next problem: “Even if exotic cooling technologies were employed, such as liquid ...

Microfluidic Lab-on-a-Chip Devices aid Diagnostics. While microfluidic chips offered improvements to cell culture practices at the lab bench, the medical field wasn’t far behind in their adoption.

Scientists at National Taiwan University have developed a new microfluidic system that can detect subtle chemical ...

This indicates that these microfluidic LF chips are a close match to the real thing, meaning they could be a much better analog for future research into the immune system and drug development.
