Coli • Dynamic environments • Mother cell machines • How cells decide when to divide, constant addition theory • Bacteria cell immortality and the old pole • Bacteria in fluctuating environments of food or antibiotics Rapid and cost effective diagnostics • Point of care, reduced access to equipment in poor countries • Construction of portable systems something that works with your phone • Low cost microscopes or fluorescence systems • HIV diagnostics • Paper based devices Synthesizing chemicals • Radio-chemicals for PET must be produced on the spot and decay rapidly Modular components • Standardization of screws and bolts • Need something similar for microfluidics • Standard ports tubing, punching patterns, pattern arrangements. Pneumatic components Working with worms and flies • Working with worms and flies can tell us about similar genes in humans • We talked about how microfluidics can be used to manipulate worms and flies Molecular evolution • Digital PCR • Megapixel PCR • Microfluidic SELEX Immunology • Chemotaxis of immune cells • Sensitive ELISA measurements • Compartmentalization of cells and determining what they excrete • Blood fractionation • Systems level analysis on single cells Simulation and construction • • • • Automated software for design of chips Simulation of chip behavior Auto-wiring of channels Stand alone biotic games for museums or classrooms https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6iUrxGo9gZs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EJlRXvpnf8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgofwf2C76g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UoLwOYtx0TA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=odtpCGZdvrU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgGFfxILoMQ
