| Summary:
George Whitesides is a Woodford L. and Ann A. Flowers Professor at Harvard
University. In this contribution he describes the development of microfluidic
techniques, from the spark that ignited this branch of academic research and
its industrial sibling, to potential future application within medicine,
security and organic synthesis. The diversity in technologies as well as in
applications makes this an intriguing story, but it is in the simplest of
materials – paper – that we find some of the most successful applications so
far.
