| Research Abstract |
Stem cells can replicate themselves and differentiate into various types of somatic cells. It is highly important to clarify such mechanisms from a scientific point of view and for the application in the area of regenerative medicine. We have developed microfluidic devices to analyze the communication between stem cells. Controlled pairing of embryonic stem cells with somatic cells has been demonstrated. An arrayed microfluidic device which has multiple microchannels has enabled high throughput operations.
