The lab focuses on the use of two-photon polymerization (2PP), a state-of-the-art ultra-high-resolution 3D printing technique, to address research challenges in various bio-related applications, such as tissue engineering and the fabrication of micro-devices.

Main macro-areas

3D Bioprinting
High resolution structures and substrates with 3D micro/nano features, development of custom resins, and cell-encapsulation.

Microfluidic platforms
Design and development of microfluidic systems for chemical synthesis and organ-on-chip applications.

In-situ monitoring
Extraction, analysis and optimisation of data derived from in-situ monitoring of printing processes.

Printing on chip and optical fiber
High-precision, aligned 3D printing of micro-optical elements on optical fibers, and chips.
