Human cells are extremely small and tightly packed – at about 20 micrometers across, ...

The dual-phase interpenetrating architecture was came out from the microstructure of natural materials. Based on the such unique structure, bioinspired P/CCSs was designed and fabricated via 3D ...

A research group conducted quantitative individual analysis on the contribution to the strength of the micrometer-scale crystallographic lamellar structures and nanometer-sized cellular structures ...

Researchers have developed a way to 3D print custom micrometer-sized structures directly into the interior of living cells. As reported in Advanced Materials, the investigators used their method to ...

A tiny elephant establishes a new stomping ground for 3-D printing: inside cells. For the first time, scientists have 3-D printed objects within living cells, including a 10-micrometer long elephant ...

3D-printed lungs made with living cells could help to improve lung disease prevention and treatment—and potentially one day offer a lab-grown option for use in organ transplants. University of ...

Before cells can divide by mitosis, they first need to replicate all of their chromosomes, so that each of the daughter cells can receive a full set of genetic material. Scientists have until now ...

A 3D printed ‘metamaterial’ boasting levels of strength for weight not normally seen in nature or manufacturing could change how we make everything from medical implants to aircraft or rocket parts.
