The ability to measure molecular binding and interactions is important for understanding many biological processes. Particularly important is detecting the binding of small molecule drugs with their corresponding membrane protein receptors, which currently account for more than half of all drug targets. For effective measurements, purified membrane...

Micromilling is a material-removal manufacturing process for producing parts with features measured in microns that have sub-micron manufacturing tolerances, often done via computer numerical control (CNC). A rotary tool called a micro end mill etches designs into the material with a toothed, multi-headed drill bit. A chip is cut away each time a tooth...
