For almost a decade co-founders Michael Pollack and Vamsee Pamula have been pursuing a better way to do microfluidics. Inspired by the electronics industry and the transition from analog to digital devices, the concept of “Digital Microfluidics” was born in the engineering labs of Duke University. After several years of research the co-founders and their collaborators decided that the technology was ready for commercialization.

In 2004, Advanced Liquid Logic was formed. The team was soon joined by an experienced CEO and successful entrepreneur, Richard West. The company quickly grew – adding experts in the fields of biochemistry, engineering, manufacturing and product development. More innovation followed, accumulating over 80 issued and pending patents and enabling elegant solutions to complex fluidic problems.

Now the technology is ready, it’s proven and it will revolutionize the field of liquid handling.
