New System Speeds Screening of Drug-Delivering Nanoparticles

‘Species agnostic’ screening is the latest result of a powerful partnership between James Dahlman and Phil Santangelo

A cell chamber is mounted on a microscope. Three micropipettes, inserted into the chamber from both sides, are used to aspirate individual cells, to bring them into contact so that researchers can study their interactions. This is the kind of methodology that Cheng Zhu and his colleagues used to study PD-1.
