[Soft-matter] Soft Matter and Stat Phys Seminar on 16 Dec 2022

[Maciej Lisicki]

Dear Soft Matter Colleagues and Friends,

On Friday 16 December 2022 at 9:30 AM at the UW Faculty of Physics (Pasteura 5, Warsaw; room 1.40) we are hosting a seminar during which

Tomasz Kamiński (University of Warsaw, Faculty of Biology; University of Cambridge, Department of Biochemistry)

will give a talk

Droplet microfluidics for ultrahigh-throughput screening and single cell assays

Abstract
Droplet microfluidics is a relatively new and rapidly evolving field of science focused on studying the hydrodynamics and properties of biphasic flows at the microscale, and on the development of systems for practical applications in chemistry and biology. The ability to generate, manipulate and monitor millions of monodisperse picoliter water-in-oil droplets provide a new format in which experiments can be conducted faster and with minimal reagent consumption. The seminar will cover our recent work focused on the discovery and improvement of plastic-degrading enzymes and functional selection of rare strains of bacteria using passive droplet sorting by interfacial tension. I will also present novel multi-step microfluidic technologies for genomic analysis of single mammalian cells encapsulated in droplets.  

We warmly welcome everyone to attend the talk and the Soft Matter Coffee Break after the seminar, held in room 2.63 (2nd floor).
