Highlighted Research

Microfluidic techniques for isolation, formation, and characterization of circulating tumor cells and clusters

Circulating tumor cell (CTC) clusters that are shed from the primary tumor into the bloodstream are associated with a poor prognosis, elevated metastatic potential, higher proliferation rate, and distinct molecular features compared to single CTCs.

Gut-on-a-chip models for dissecting the gut microbiology and physiology

Microfluidic technologies have been extensively investigated in recent years for developing organ-on-a-chip-devices as robust in vitro models aiming to recapitulate organ 3D topography and its physicochemical cues.

Recent progress in electrospun nanomaterials for wearables

Wearables have garnered significant attention in recent years not only as consumer electronics for entertainment, communications, and commerce but also for real-time continuous health monitoring. This has been spurred by advances in flexible sensors, transistors, energy storage, and harvesting devices to replace the traditional, bulky, and rigid electronic devices.

Cellular interactions with polystyrene nanoplastics—The role of particle size and protein corona

Plastic waste is ubiquitously spread across the world and its smaller analogs—microplastics and nanoplastics—raise particular health concerns. While biological impacts of microplastics and nanoplastics have been actively studied, the chemical and biological bases for the adverse effects are sought after.

Tutorials in vibrational sum frequency generation spectroscopy. I. The foundations

Interfaces between bulk media are often where critical molecular processes occur that can dictate the chemistry of an entire macroscopic system. Optical spectroscopy such as IR or Raman spectroscopy is often challenging to apply to interfaces due to contributions from bulk phases that dominate the spectra, masking any detail about the interfacial layer.

Redefining the concept of hydration water near soft interfaces

Water determines the properties of biological systems. Therefore, understanding the nature of the mutual interaction between water and biosystems is of primary importance for a proper assessment of any biological activity, e.g., the efficacy of new drugs or vaccines.

Microfluidic generation of monodispersed Janus alginate hydrogel microparticles using water-in-oil emulsion reactant

Microparticles with uniform anisotropic structures are widely used in physical, chemical, and biological fields owing to their ability to combine multiple functions on a micro-scale.

Wearable microfluidic patch with integrated capillary valves and pumps for sweat management and multiple biomarker analysis

Wearable sweat sensors are essential for providing insight into human physiological health. The currently developed microfluidic sweat sensors have demonstrated the function of collecting and storing sweat.

Machine learning-augmented fluid dynamics simulations for micromixer educational module

Micromixers play an imperative role in chemical and biomedical systems. Designing compact micromixers for laminar flows owning a low Reynolds number is more challenging than flows with higher turbulence.

Live cell microscopy: From image to insight

Live-cell microscopy is a powerful tool that can reveal cellular behavior as well as the underlying molecular processes. A key advantage of microscopy is that by visualizing biological processes, it can provide direct insights.

Appreciating the role of cell shape changes in the mechanobiology of epithelial tissues

The wide range of epithelial cell shapes reveals the complexity and diversity of the intracellular mechanisms that serve to construct their morphology and regulate their functions. Using mechanosensitive steps, epithelial cells can sense a variety of different mechanochemical stimuli and adapt their behavior by reshaping their morphology.

Varied solutions to multicellularity: The biophysical and evolutionary consequences of diverse intercellular bonds

The diversity of multicellular organisms is, in large part, due to the fact that multicellularity has independently evolved many times. Nonetheless, multicellular organisms all share a universal biophysical trait: cells are attached to each other.
