RainDance Technologies, Inc. (RDT) is a nanotechnology company devoted to developing, and commercializing the Professional Laboratory System™, a platform for droplet-based (“digital”) microfluidics.  The PLS™ is an integrated fluid handling system that provides precise manipulation of minute amounts of fluids for a variety of industrial and research applications:

• Life Sciences Research
• Enzymes / Microorganisms for Indusrial Biofuels
• Cancer Diagnosis / Detection for Residual Disease

Founded in 2004 by scientists from Harvard University in Boston, the Medical Research Council in Cambridge, and the ESPCI in Paris, RainDance Technologies designed the Professional Laboratory System to be the chemical equivalent of a personal computer.  The key to this innovation is the first combination of microdroplets and microfluidic systems to create digital packets of chemical information called NanoReactors™. Like a computer manipulates bits of information, the PLS enables the programmable handling of cells and fluid samples for innovative assay and screening applications. The promise of this technology has allowed RainDance to attract an outstanding Scientific Advisory Board including three Nobel Prize winners: Jean-Marie Lehn, Sir Aaron Klug, and Dr. Richard Roberts, as well as Sir Gregory Winter.
