    Abstract: A microfluidic device is disclosed that is used to process cells for the intracellular delivery of molecules or other cargo. The device includes one or more microchannels disposed in a substrate or chip and is fluidically coupled to an inlet configured to receive a solution containing the cells and the molecules or other cargo to be delivered intracellularly to the cells. Each of the one or more microchannels has one or more constriction regions formed therein, wherein the inner surface(s) of the microchannels and the one or more constriction regions have a lipid bilayer disposed thereon. In some embodiments, multiple microfluidic devices operating in parallel are used to process large numbers of cells. The device and method have particularly applicability to delivering gene-editing molecules intracellularly to cells.
