   摘要：This talk will describe the microfluidic technology that enables the use of droplets whose volume is picoliters in assays that have potential to impact precision medicine and bring new diagnostic and therapeutic applications to the clinic.  These droplet-based microfluidic techniques enable many different applications including very sensitive detection of minute amounts of reagents through PCR amplification methods, or single cell analysis techniques through genomic barcoding and readout through sequencing methods. Several different applications will be described.
