Folch Lab

@mitpress Thanks @MITPress!

Hidden in Plain Sight: The History, Science, and Engineering of Microfluidic Technology by Albert Folch shares stories behind essential microfluidic devices, from the inkjet printer to the DNA sequencing chip. mitpress.mit.edu/books/hidden-p…

We love the smell of new books, don't you? The following titles are now available from the #MITPress!

My latest book ("Hidden In Plain Sight", MIT Press) is almost here! Thanks to my editor Jermey Matthews for leading a fantastic editing team, which produced a beautiful layout & an amazing cover with img by Greg Cooksey! You can pre-order it here: lnkd.in/dXbU4rmS

Princess Imoukhuede has been named the new chair of @UW Department of Bioengineering @uwengineering @UWMedicine effective Jan. 1, 2022. She looks forward to collaborative efforts for innovation in medicine & other fields bit.ly/3CDKy3N

@UWBioE is absolutely thrilled that Prof. and Dean Nancy Allbritton will receive the 2021 Pritzker Award from @BMES! Congratulations to Dr. Allbritton! 🎉🎉🎉@UWCOE @UWMedicine bioe.uw.edu/nancy-allbritt…

Our new paper! Microdissected “cuboids” for microfluidic drug testing of intact tissues - now published in Lab on a Chip pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art… If you don't have access, you can check to Open Source Version: lnkd.in/g_wWZt2

Our review paper "Microfluidics for interrogating live intact tissues", by Lisa F. Horowitz, Adán D. Rodriguez, Tyler Ray & Albert Folch, is now online (open access) at Nature's Microsystems & Nanoengineering! lnkd.in/dmD-Q3q Enjoy!

Our paper featured on the (online) cover of Nature Precision Oncology! "Drug testing of tumor slices using a microfluidic platform" nature.com/articles/s4169… #cancer #cancerresearch #microfluidics #bioengineering #biomedicalengineering

Our Nature Precision Oncology paper is finally out! Proud that my wife Lisa Horowitz is the first author, working on this project for the last 6-7 years and based on this work she will lead startup OncoFluidics! You can read the open-access paper here: nature.com/articles/s4169…

Our latest paper "A microfluidic platform for functional testing of cancer drugs on intact tumor slices" - now published in Lab on a Chip pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

I decided to post on BioRxiv our latest paper, "Multiplexed drug testing of tumor slices using a microfluidic platform", to see if it gets early attention and comments: disq.us/t/3miaszy

Our latest paper -- “Chip-on-a-Transwell” Devices for User-Friendly Control of the Microenvironment of Cultured Cells, see pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

The Folch Lab is finally on Instagram @folch_lab_art ! Our BAIT program (Bringing Art Into Technology) started in 2007 with a simple Picasa post. We will gradually post our art+videos at full resolution on Instagram (if we get encouraged by good feedback and followers) :-)
