When asked about the most important obstacles in cancer research today, Stefan Seeger, professor at the University of Zurich, Switzerland and founder of Molecular Machines & Industries, says, "I think the variability of cancer and the modification of it over time is a really big problem." He adds, "It's not enough to find a diagnostic marker or therapy that can be applied in general."

Seeger says, "You can isolate tiny compartments of even single cells from a sample with very high precision."
This technology can also be combined with molecular methods to extract DNA or RNA from a sample. "With amplification," Seeger says, "you can analyze the genome or expression profile in a single cell."
