High-Throughput Controlled Mechanical Stimulation and Functional Imaging <i>In Vivo</i>

2017-02-10

Abstract excerpt

Understanding mechanosensation and other sensory behavior in genetic model systems such as C. elegans is relevant to many human diseases. These studies conventionally require immobilization by glue and manual delivery of stimuli, leading to low experimental throughput and high variability. Here we present a microfluidic platform that delivers precise mechanical stimuli robustly. The system can be easily used in c...
