Abstract
The technology provides arrays of microwells with reversible shape for culture, analysis, and recovery of individual cells or groups of cells. The microwells are reversibly formed by vacuum-induced deflection of an elastomeric membrane into an array of microwell molds formed in a microwell substrate. The shape of each microwell or groups of microwells can be selectively altered by applying or releasing vacuum to individual microwells. The devices, systems, and methods utilizing the technology enable collection of individual cells for further study or therapeutic use without the need for micromanipulation.
