Abstract

Three-dimensional (3D) fabricated soft materials have applications in diverse areas such as tissue engineering soft robotics and biomedicine. Here, we report 3D printing of programmed microscale device with biocompatible protein hydrogel. The microstructures were spatiotemporally functionalized with active groups by laser assisted photobleaching. The biofunctionalized hydrogel structures would provide an artificial microenvironment to mimic the native cell matrix, which allow us to investigate how cells react to and interact with external mechanical cues.
