5. Abastract:
System dynamics and control is no longer a technology limited to vehicles, airplanes, and robots, but through transdisciplinary expansions is now playing key roles in addressing high impact challenges from biology to nanotechnology. Dynamic control approaches, when combined with microfluidic platforms that bridge a wide range of applications, provide a unique toolset to open new avenues in engineering complex biological systems and multifunctional nanomaterials. Furthermore, the extension of microfluidic platforms up to the scale of millifluidics allows for increased versatility to manipulate 3D biochemical profiles for diverse applications including flow cytometry, developmental biology, and nanomanufacturing. In this talk, I will present microfluidic control approaches that (i) allow investigation of multicellular dynamics in a Xenopus embryonic tissue in space and time and (ii) enable large-scale controlled syntheses of therapeutic and diagnostic nanoparticles with high reproducibility. Integrative engineering approaches to combine bionanotechnology and microfluidic control systems are enabling us to develop biomimetic chips that reconstitute organ-level functions for regenerative medicine and to build integrated platforms for manufacturing of multifunctional nanomaterials with optimized physicochemical properties for translation of nanomedicines from the lab to the clinic.
