Electrospin printing smokes classical 3D printing!!!

I was delighted to recently learn that our work (see article published in Analyst 2013,138, 2215-2223) has been adopted and developed for printing fine three-dimensional architectures (see Nat. Commun. 2020, 11, 753).

The neat feature in this approach as shown by us is that one is able to cross-stich fibers containing a wide range of materials (in our case living cells), over a large thickness! this also means that one can directionally grade fibers over the thickness of the generated scaffold.

Electrospray and electrospin printing seems to be outclassing classical 3D printing.
