thumbnailScientists introduce microfluidics-based chip for manipulation and analysis of single cells
A few little cells that are different from the rest can have a big effect. For example, individual cancer cells may be resistant to a specific chemotherapy--causing a relapse in a patient who would otherwise be cured. In the journal Angewandte Chemie ...
