New open-source website features blueprints for lab-on-a-chip devices.

With new method, MIT engineers can control and separate fluids on a surface using only visible light.

Microfluidic device isolates plasma cells from blood rather than bone marrow.

Microfluidic device generates passive hydraulic power, may be used to make small robots move.

With chemistry and light, researchers can tune the focus of tiny beads of liquid.

Method for moving fluids on a surface may find uses in condensers, microfluidics, and de-icing.

Technique mass-produces uniform, encapsulated particles for pharmaceuticals, many other uses.

Device that measures growth of many individual cells simultaneously could lead to rapid tests for antibiotics.

Engineer’s designs may help purify water, diagnose disease in remote regions of world.

New chip could help test drugs for ALS, other neuromuscular disorders.
