The microfluidics research group at Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP) is an interdisciplinary team involving researchers from chemistry, medicine, biology, physics and engineering fields, respectively. This group engaged in the study of capillary electrophoresis since the early 1990's, and switched to microfluidics at the end of 1990’s.

Our current research is focused on the investigation of microfluidics related theory, various functional elements including microvalve/pumps, droplet operations, point-of-care devices, biochemical method development as well as their potential biomedical applications, with an emphasis on medical diagnosis and drug screening at cellular and organism levels.
