Lab-on-a-chip just what doctor ordered

Abstract:
Fifteen years ago, lab-on-a-chip was considered the next big thing for MEMS. The cluster of startups that brought lab-on-a-chip to market went public fairly quickly. Today those firms are still struggling to generate revenues, not to mention recover the huge sums spent on developing products.
