Journal ArticleDOI
Three-dimensional self-assembly of millimetre-scale components
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe an approach for the self-assembly of millimetre-scale components that uses shape recognition and the minimization of liquid-liquid interfacial free energies.
Journal ArticleDOI
“Paper Machine” for Molecular Diagnostics
TL;DR: Full integration of sample preparation with LAMP amplification and end point detection with a limit of detection of 5 cells is demonstrated and it is shown that the method used to prepare sample enables concentration of DNA from sample volumes commonly available from fingerstick blood draw.

Journal ArticleDOI
Convenient methods for patterning the adhesion of mammalian cells to surfaces using self-assembled monolayers of alkanethiolates on gold
Gabriel P. Lopez,Mark W. Albers,Stuart L. Schreiber,Reed C. Carroll,Ernest G. Peralta,George M. Whitesides +5 more
TL;DR: Two convenient and flexible methods for controlling the attachment and spreading of mammalian cells on solid surfaces using patterned, self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) are described, enabling the examination of controlled adhesion of populations of cells and of individual cells and cellular processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geometric determinants of directional cell motility revealed using microcontact printing
Amy Brock,Eric C. Chang,Chia-Chi Ho,Philip R. LeDuc,Xingyu Jiang,George M. Whitesides,Donald E. Ingber +6 more
TL;DR: Data indicate that mammalian cells can sense edges within ECM patterns that exhibit a wide range of angularity and that they use these spatial cues to guide where they will deposit ECM and extend new motile processes during the process of directional migration.
