Microfluidics

I came into this topic via vascularization, but I am also interested in it in its own right.

Contributions

• If you’re already doing cell culture, you can get started with microfluidics for the cost of a laser cutter, some acrylic sheet and PDMS. Here is a simple, freely-licensed device to get started with. It’s matched to standard microscopy slides and at common depth/material combinations can be operated by capillary action alone.

Collaborations

I am currently working with students at the Centre for Computational Medicine, University College London to test the low-cost device.
