An Improved Microgripper for Cell Manipulation

There is a growing need for individual cell manipulation in a wide range of research applications including stem cell sorting, gene and molecular delivery, cellular diagnostics, and single cell-based assays. When compared with data-averaging over a cell population, direct physical cell manipulation offers the researcher much more precise selection and understanding of cell properties.

Two North East organisations have joined forces this week in a bid to reinforce the region?s position as a driver for innovation in the UK?s processing sector.


Two North East organisations have joined forces this week in a bid to reinforce the region?s position as a driver for innovation in the UK?s processing sector. The Centre for Process Innovation (CPI) and the Centre of Excellence for Nano, Micro and Photonic Systems (Cenamps), announced their merge on Tuesday.

CPI aims to become a national centre of international importance, with over 70 high calibre scientists, engineers and support staff. Their approach to stimulating market-led innovation brings business together with academia to address the needs of the industry.

The newly merged CPI will be championing four key technology areas that offer the most sustainable growth potential. They are: advanced processes, low carbon energy, functional materials and printable electronics.

Nigel Perry, CEO of CPI, said "This is a highly positive move for North East England in a sector where we already have a real international presence. Processing is moving forward at a great pace and only those organisations which continually innovate and evolve will keep up with the marketplace.
