Brain tissue is an inhomogeneous, layered, multi-phase, and multi-functional material made of interconnected neural, glial, and vascular networks, and is immersed in the cerebrospinal fluid. In order to advance our understanding of how the brain provides its functions, we need to develop a robust controlled feedback engineering framework that us...

Large double stranded DNA are both a powerful system to study polymer dynamics at the single molecule level and also important molecules for genomic applications. While homogenous electric fields are routinely used to separate DNA in gels, DNA deformation in more complex fields has been less widely studied. We will demonstrate how micro/nanoflui...
