Abstract: Devices and methods for sorting cells are provided that use a holder with cells adherent to a material whose adhesive properties are affected by light, a pixelated light-generating array, and a pixelated photosensitive array. Selected cells can be released from the adhesive layer after illumination of the adhesive layer by the light-generating array.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for trapping or focusing magnetizable particles comprising therapeutic agents at a distance using a dynamic magnetic field and feedback control, to enable the treatment of diseased areas deep inside a patient's body. The methods may be used to diagnose or treat diseased areas deep within a patient, for example tumors of the lungs, intestines, and liver, and is also useful in enhancing the permeability of solid tumors to chemotherapeutic agents.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments assay for the presence of Ge-68, although disclosed embodiments can also be used for other radionuclide generators, with minimal adjustments.

Abstract: In a microfluidic device, respective motion of a plurality of objects along corresponding trajectories is achieved by determining a force field, such as an underlying fluid flow which, when applied to the plurality of object, moves each object along its corresponding trajectory. The force field is a linear superposition of a subset of all force fields supported by the physical characteristics of the microfluidic device. Once the fields have been ascertained, a plurality of actuation signals corresponding to the fields is applied to actuators installed on the microfluidic device to cause the force on each object. By implementing a feedback structure, corrections for positional errors may be made by computing a corrective force for each object and adjusting the actuation signals appropriately thereto.
