Aime & Scopes
Lab on a Chip provides a unique forum for the publication of significant and original work related to miniaturisation, at the micro- and nano-scale, of interest to a multidisciplinary readership. The journal seeks to publish work at the interface between physical technological advancements and high impact applications that are of direct interest to a broad audience.
The most important factor used to assess manuscripts that are submitted to Lab on a Chip is novelty. Papers should demonstrate novelty in both: (i) the device physics, engineering, and materials; and (ii) applications in biology, chemistry, medicine. Submissions that describe novelty in both device and application are most likely to be published. Outstanding papers featuring novelty in either the device or the application may also be published.
All manuscripts should be written such that they are accessible to scientists in all disciplines associated with the following subjects, across both academic and industrial sectors.
Novel micro- and nano-technologies and fundamental principles
/// Micro- and nano-fabrication (including 3D printing, thin films)
/// Micro- and nano-fluidics (in continuous and segmented multiphase flow, droplet microfluidics, new liquids)
/// Micro- and nano-systems (sensor, actuator, reaction)
/// Micro- and nano-separation technologies (molecular and cellular sorting)
/// Micro- and nano-total analysis system (µTAS, nTAS)
/// Digital microfluidics
/// Sample preparation
/// Imaging and detection
Significant biological, chemical, medical, environmental and energy applications
/// Nucleic acid biotechnology and analysis (DNA and RNA sequencing, genotyping, gene manipulation)
/// Protein analysis (proteomics and metabolomics for targeted and global analysis)
/// Medical diagnostics (for example point of care and molecular)
/// Medical devices and treatments (including implantable and wireless)
/// Drug development (screening and delivery)
/// Cells, tissues, organs on chip and integrated tissue engineering
/// 3D cell culture
/// Single cell analysis
/// Cell and organism motility and interactions
/// Systems and synthetic biology and medicine
/// Energy, biofuels, fuel extraction
/// Environmental and food monitoring for health and security
