Pioneer Fellow Hao Liu uses lasers to produce microfilament structures to grow biological tissue in the lab for research and medicine—from muscle tissue to cartilage. Now he's working to ready ...

Liu uses laser technology to create intricate, microscopic structures that mimic the natural architecture of human tissues.

ETH Zurich doctoral student Hao Liu uses lasers to create microfilament structures from a special type of gelatine. In the lab, the structures serve as a scaffold for growing cells. The method opens ...

It binds to G-actin, a protein that can polymerize to form F-actin microfilament, another structural form of actin crucial for cellular functions, and blocks the dynamic interchange between the ...

For this, the researchers have created a compact bioprinter to develop biological tissues with microfilament structures. He is now working to bring this technology to market. “Our aim is to ...
