While researchers like Hod Lipson are working on advanced multimaterial 3D printing techniques behind institutional doors, Harvard’s Jennifer Lewis is advancing 3D printing technologies on both the commercial and the academic fronts. The material scientist’s Voxel8, of which she is the CEO, has already launched its first multimaterial 3D printer with plans to integrate new materials into its platform in the future. Meanwhile, she continues to perform her research, with the latest dealing directly with multimaterial 3D printing, this time with viscoelastic materials.…
