Compact Micropatterned Chip Empowers Undisturbed and Programmable Drug Addition in High‐Throughput Cell Screening (Adv. Mater. 11/2024)

Drug Release In article number 2306814, Wenqian Feng and co-workers report an innovative polymer-pattern-based platform, enabling the precise incorporation of multiple drugs and chemical reagents into individual microdroplets simultaneously, all programmable to be customized according to specific needs. This approach facilitates the engineering of high-throughput cell screening under conditional light, significantly reducing mechanical disruption while offering precise control over the timing, dosage, and integration of a wide range of drugs within cell microreservoirs, suitable for both suspension and adherent cultures.
