Gel Electromicrofluidics Assisted In Situ Single Cell Analysis — NSF Award to Kansas State University (KS, $450,000)

Analyzing single cells under a microscope is a powerful tool in healthcare, medicine, and homeland security. Typically, biological samples are spread onto glass slides for microscopic examination to detect pathogens or identify biowarfare agents. Current single-cell imaging systems use high-resolution microscopy, which

AbstractAnalyzing single cells under a microscope is a powerful tool in healthcare, medicine, and homeland security. Typically, biological samples are spread onto glass slides for microscopic examination to detect pathogens or identify biowarfare agents. Current single-cell imaging systems use high-resolution microscopy, which captures only a small sample volume, resulting in limited sensitivity. This project will develop a gel electromicrofluidics (GEM) platform that enhances single-cell imaging by amp
