In this review, we describe recent advances in droplet-based microfluidics technology that can be applied in studies of artificial cells. Artificial cells are simplified models of living cells and provide valuable model platforms designed to reveal the functions of biological systems. The study of artificial cells is promoted by microfluidics technologies, which provide control over tiny volumes of solutions during quantitative chemical experiments and other manipulations. Here, we focus on current and future trends in droplet microfluidics and their applications in studies of artificial cells.
