1. A method for processing a biological sample, comprising:
(a) introducing the biological sample into a fluidic device, wherein the biological sample comprises a biological component;
(b) introducing polymer precursors into the fluidic device;
(c) determining a location of the biological component within the fluidic device; and
(d) selectively polymerizing the polymer precursors to generate a polymer matrix from the polymer precursors within the fluidic device, wherein the polymer matrix at least partially encapsulates the biological component.
