  1. MIT device draws cells close -- but not too close -- together
    03-29-2007 · EurekAlert!
    In a popular children's game participants stand as close as possible without touching. But on a microscopic level, coaxing cells to be very, very close without actually touching one another has been among the most frustrating challenges for cell biologists. Now MIT researchers led by Sangeeta Bhatia, associate professor of electrical engineering and computer science at the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology, have solved the problem with a novel device.
