We congratulate Pinak Samal to his new article published in Advanced Materials, which is featured on the inside front cover of the prestigious journal. The article shows an economical and easily accessible direct deep-UV photolithography method for fabricating microstructures directly in tissue-culture substrates while requiring minimal processing time. The remarkable straightforwardness of the process enables this class of microengineering techniques to be broadly accessible to diverse research communities. If you are interested then please find the open access article here.
