Examining the nanotextile studies of the the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology or even the nanoscopic art of Jonty Hurwitz, it’s clear that the research surrounding nano 3D printing has only just begun. Scientists at ETH Zurich may be among the first to have explored 3D printing in the medical field. With a paper titled “Superparamagnetic Twist-Type Actuators with Shape-Independent Magnetic Properties and Surface Functionalization for Advanced Biomedical Applications” published in Advanced Functional Materials, ETH Zurich researchers have begun outlining a method for fabricating nanoprinting actuators that can drive micro-devices carrying medicines in the human body.…
