Manipulating Objects (e.g. swimming cells, quantum dots) by Micro Flow Feedback Control ( vs ABEL trap, we did particle feedback control first. Details/Documentation )	Control of Electrowetting Flows with C.J Kim and Robin Garrell


2DPCR for Spatially Mapping Genetics in Tissue Samples with Elisabeth Smela, Michael Emmert-Buck	Directing Therapeutics to Targets by Precise Control of Magnetic Fields with A.Lubbe, M.Emmert-Buck, K.Dormer, I.Rutel

My group is focused on all aspects of miniaturized-system control, from initial determination of the dominant physics, to model development, control problem statement and algorithm design, to experimental verification.

Some sample projects are shown. To learn more click on any project. Mousing-over the images will reveal the title of the projects. More projects can be found here.
