The first generation of instruments is likely to include devices for sorting and selecting cells, devices for accurately positioning one or more cells in a mixture and cell based biosensors with long shelf lives. New measurement techniques at the single cell level and new ways of probing cell-cell interactions will open up possibilities in basic research.
