Abstract

In article number 1900847, Wenguang Yang, Haibo Yu, Lianqing Liu, and co-workers demonstrate an optofluidic maskless lithography system that combines digital micromirror device (DMD)-based 3D printing and microfluidic technologies for fabricating 3D functional microgels. With this system, 3D microgels can be custom designed online and manufactured modularly in a microfluidic device. Furthermore, cells in microgels exhibit features that are more similar to the complex in vivo conditions, including morphology, proliferation, and drug resistance.
