Building things so small that they are smaller than the width of a human hair was previously achieved by using a method ...

Scientists working at microscopic scales have relied on a single dominant fabrication technique to ...

Two photon polymerization has now moved from “on cells” to “inside cells”, opening a strange, new frontier.

Some 10% of people shy away from medical attention because they have a severe fear of needles, and nobody likes getting poked ...

A new two-photon polymerization technique combines a relatively low-cost laser emitting nanosecond pulses with a femtosecond laser at reduced power to enable 3D printing of complex high-resolution ...

Custom polymer structures can now be 3D printed inside living cells using laser-based fabrication, opening paths to intracellular sensors, cell tracking tags, and embedded microlasers.

A novel method has enabled scientists to 3D-print structures into live cells, paving the way for a new class of intracellular bioengineering tools and applications. In a first, scientists from the ...
