3DMM2O Secures Second Funding Period
We are proud to announce that our Cluster of Excellence 3D Matter Made to Order (3DMM2O) has secured funding for a second period through the German Excellence Strategy. Following the submission of our renewal proposal in August 2024 and a successful on-site evaluation in January 2025, this achievement represents a significant milestone in our ongoing […]
Peer Fischer elected AIMBE Fellow for outstanding contributions to biomedical engineering
Congratulations to our Cluster Principal Investigator, Prof. Dr. Peer Fischer, on being elected a Fellow of the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE)! This prestigious honor recognizes the top two percent of engineers for their exceptional contributions to the field of biomedical engineering. Professor Fischer is recognized for his pioneering work in nanorobotics […]
Tunable Hydrogels for 4D Printing
In a new publication, Principal Investigator Eva Blasco, Cluster Alumnus Christoph Spiegel, and H. B. Duc Tran developed a new class of smart hydrogel inks based on OEGMA for 4D microprinting. They created materials with tunable thermoresponsive behavior across a broad temperature range (33–66 °C) by combining OEGMA with MEO2MA and HEMA, surpassing traditional systems. […]

A Review of Nonlocal Metamaterials and Metasurfaces
A new review article featuring Cluster Postdoctoral Researcher Yi Chen and PI Martin Wegener, published in Nature Reviews Physics, explores the concept of nonlocality in metamaterials and metasurfaces. Unlike traditional materials, which have local responses, nonlocality enables a material’s behavior to depend on fields at multiple locations. This unlocks novel ways to control wave propagation […]

This free, hands-on workshop will be held on August 6–7 at the ZEISS Innovation Hub on the KIT Campus North in Karlsruhe. Girls and young women aged 13 to 19 are […]
The Manfred Fuchs Prize 2025 awarded to Prof. Dr. Pascal Friederich
Pascal Friederich, our Cluster PI from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), has been awarded the Manfred Fuchs Prize 2025 by the Heidelberg Academy of Sciences. The €10,000 prize recognizes early-career researchers in Baden-Württemberg who bridge disciplines and drive scientific innovation. Friederich’s research combines artificial intelligence with materials science to accelerate the discovery and simulation […]
From science fiction to state-of-the-art research – how is 3D printing reshaping science?
What was once a science fiction concept is now transforming modern research: 3D printing. In a recent Cluster article, Jonathan Schmidt, alumnus Christoph A. Spiegel, and principal investigators (PIs) Eva Blasco and Christine Selhuber-Unkel explore how light-based 3D printing enables groundbreaking advances, from cancer research to smart materials that adapt and self-heal. The article, published […]
