Desktop vacuum thermoforming enables rapid, low‐cost fabrication of 96‐channel polystyrene culture chips with very thin imaging interfaces. The resulting platform supports cell lines, primary cells, and patient‐derived organoids, and enables high‐resolution confocal microscopy and single‐cell visualization, providing an accessible approach for advanced

Liquid Crystal Elastomer Actuator Matrix for Large Area Applications
A scalable approach is used to manufacture a digitally‐controllable, 2D 5 × 5 actuator matrix. The elements of the matrix are produced by direct ink writing of a liquid crystal elastomer ‘artificial muscle’ on large‐area flexible thin‐film heaters. In optimizing the low‐power actuators, multiple heater designs and substrate materials are investigated ...

A liquid metal‐based strain‐sensing architecture to measure the deformation of a circular diaphragm against obstructed surfaces is formulated using finite element modeling and confocal imaging to establish the mechanical framework and is utilized to control diaphragm‐induced confinement on a bead array, as validated by biomolecular loading level ...

Planar patch clamp for neuronal networks - Considerations and future perspectives
The patch-clamp technique is generally accepted as the gold standard for studying ion channel activity allowing investigators to either "clamp" membrane voltage and directly measure transmembrane currents through ion channels, or to passively monitor ...

A novel carbon fiber reinforcement for dielectric elastomer actuators enhances actuation force while decoupling electromechanical performance from the actuator's aspect ratio. Unlike conventional fiber reinforcements, it enables a uniform planar stretch state along the entire actuator.

The patch clamp technique enables the analyses of various ion channel characteristics of individual cells in vitro. The most important difference from previous techniques is that the microelectrode (pipette) is firmly attached to the cell surface instead of being inserted into the cells, and the so-called "giga-ohm seal" is attained. Usually, the whole
