报告简要：

The importance of individual heterogeneity within an isogenic population is well recognized. However, tradition methods that use average responses from a population often mask the difference from individual cells. To reveal phenotypic variations in a population, a number of challenges ranging from single cell handling to detection have to be overcome. Our solution is to exploit advances in microfluidics, biomaterials and spectroscopic techniques to create integrated, single-cell platforms.  These platforms enable real-time ****ysis of a population at the single-cell level in precisely defined microenvironments. In this talk, I will illustrate advantages of our single-cell approach in both healthcare (i.e. mammalian cells) and environmental (i.e. microorganisms) applications. I will present examples from several of our current works; including biomimetic tissue repairing, Raman activated single cell sorting, and quantitative single-cell growth platforms that provide a powerful tools for microbiology research in environmental science, synthetic biology and drug discovery.
