Deterministic encapsulation of single cells in thin tunable microgels for niche modeling and therapeutic delivery

Existing techniques to encapsulate cells into microscale hydrogels generally yield high polymer-to-cell ratios and lack control over the hydrogel’s mechanical properties(1). Here, we report a microfluidic-based method for encapsulating single cells in a ~6 micron layer of alginate that increases the...
