讲座摘要
ingle-cell arrays (SCAs) have important applications in the analysis of phenotypic heterogeneity, which is difficult or impossible to analyze in bulk cell culture or patient samples. However, existing systems lack the required combination of being adequately, programmable, flexible, and massive-scale to enable the study of cell behaviors and cell-cell interactions at the scales necessary to analyze extremely rare events. To advance the field, we have developed a novel, programmable, and massively-parallel SCA system which is based on the principles of computer circuits. By integrating these magnetic circuits with microfluidics channels, we have developed a platform that can organize a large number of single cells into an array in a controlled manner. Our programmable magnetic circuits allow both individual cells as well as single-cell pairs to be formed into large arrays and incubated on the chip for multiple days, enabling the long-term phenotypic analysis of rare cellular events.
