Webinar with Prof. Dr. Martin Wegener

An upcoming live webinar of Two-Photon Polymerization technology manufacturer Nanoscribe will feature Prof. Dr. Martin Wegener as an expert on 3D Microfabrication with highest precision and speed using Two-Photon Polymerization (2PP). The webinar will take place April 13 from 5 to 6 pm (CEST).

Interview with Conference Organizers

Prof. Dr. Martin Bastmeyer (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) and Joachim Wittbrodt (Heidelberg University), the organizers of Future 3D Additive Manufacturing – The 3DMM2O Conference 2021: 3D Hybrid Organotypic Systems, were interviewed by Rundfunk Berlin-Brandenburg. In the interview, they give an insight into the topics of the Conference.

New Cluster PI: Jun.-Prof. Daniela Duarte Campos

The Cluster 3DMM2O warmly welcomes Jun.-Prof. Dr.-Ing. Daniela Duarte Campos as a new PI in Research Thrust C3. Before joining Heidelberg University as a W1 professor recently, Daniela Duarte Campos worked at RWTH Aachen University. Her research focuses on bioprinting and advanced materials for biomedicine.

ITAS Event: 3D Printing for the Post-COVID World

The public event “3D Printing for the Post-COVID World” is part of ITAS’ international research symposium “Re-imagining the futures of 3D printing in society”. It will feature discussions on 3D printing and the accompanying societal changes with internationally renowned experts. The event will take place March 23, 2021 from 6:30 to 8 pm.

Printed Thermoelectric Generators

Cluster scientists have developed a mass-producible low-cost fully printed flexible origami thermoelectric generator which is able to power an autonomous weather sensor comprising a Bluetooth module and a power management system. This approach might be a milestone for the use of low-cost TEGs. They present their results in the journal npj Flexible Electronics.

New Functional Materials in 3D Printing

Cluster scientists have developed new functional materials to extend the possibilities of 3D Nanoprinting. In a paper published in Nature Communications, they show their results: 3D polymer structures of highly complex geometries and spatially controlled pore sizes from 10 nm to 1000 µm. This new approach extends the scope of applications of 3D printing to hierarchical inherently porous 3D […]

Interviews with Carl Zeiss Scholarship holders

The Cluster 3DMM2O has a lot of talented Young Researchers. In order two increase their visibility, we have published two interviews with female Carl Zeiss Foundation Scholarship holders Britta Weidinger (A3) and Tamara Molitor (C3). In the interviews, they talk about their research and the role of the CZF Scholarship Program for their academic career.

New PI: Prof. Dr. Selhuber-Unkel

The Cluster 3DMM2O warmly welcomes Prof. Dr. Christine Selhuber-Unkel as a new PI. Prof Dr. Selhuber-Unkel is head of the Molecular Systems Engineering research group at the Institute for Molecular Systems Engineering (IMSE) of Heidelberg University and will conduct research in Thrust B1 of the Cluster. Furthermore, she recently received an ERC Consolidator Grant for her project „Photomechanical writing of […]

ERC Consolidator Grant for PI Frauke Gräter

Cluster Principal Investigator Frauke Gräter receives an ERC Consolidator Grant for her project „Mechanoradicals in Collagen“ (RADICOL), which focuses on radicals caused by excessive mechanical stress on collagen, the protein which provides structural and mechanical stability to the connective tissues in the human body.
