Abstract: The present invention relates to a microfluidic device to manipulate, select, treat, or cultivate living bodies, comprising a first chamber, a second chamber and a network of guiding tracks, wherein: said network of guiding tracks comprises at least one first guiding track connecting the first chamber and the second chamber and at least one second guiding track connecting said at least one first guiding track with at least two interconnections; and said at least one second guiding track comprises a curved part; said curved part exhibiting a concavity facing the second chamber or the part of the network connected to the second chamber.

Abstract: A device for cell culture, in particular of neuronal cells, including: a substrate defining a first microfluidic chamber to be seeded with a first cell culture, and at least a second microfluidic chamber, a fluidic interconnection system connecting the first and second chambers and enabling cellular extensions, in particular axons, to extend from one chamber to the other, wherein the interconnection system of the device is made so as to promote the progression of at least one first type of cellular extension, the first and second types of extension being different either due to the microfluidic chamber from which they originate, or due to the type of cell of which they constitute an extension.
