Yes, me too unfortunately, and I could have had at least 10-20 more papers, I just choose not to play that game. But the system demands numbers to advance, so that’s not helping.

Yes, simply using a machine from our team without further discussion or involvement in the project I have declined; also, if the time commitment is small, acknowledgements are fine.

The candidate is expected to further develop the pumps and work with clinicians at the Gregorio Marañon hospital (Madrid). They are pioneers in pediatric ECMO, and we have a swine model to validate our pumps.

This is a very "out-of-the-box" project, so a highly dynamic person is needed.

The overall outcome is much faster and cheaper DNA sequencing, hopefully enabling real-time patient NGS even in smaller hospitals. Huge shout-out to first author Yanzhe Qin for coordinating this effort, and happy I could make a contribution to understanding the fluid dynamics in this system!

and 3) DNA sequencing quality and precision remains good!

Surprisingly, this turns out to have many amazing advantages: 1) you don't need to worry about pressure drop (which is negligible), and therefore it can be easily scaled to large chip areas, 2) the mass transport is very fast (< 2 s) and efficient (5–85 better than traditional flow cells)
