Our lab provides a unique multidisciplinary research environment to address the synergy between novel systems, materials and processes for rapid prototyping of macro- and micro-scale systems. The research programs carried out in this laboratory consist of systems characterization, materials processing and micro-system fabrication using novel layer-based maskless rapid prototyping techniques capable of handling customized products with complex geometries and heterogeneous internal architectures. This lab expands rapid prototyping in multi-scale systems realization by developing advanced techniques for non-planar materials deposition as well as the fabrication of complex components with heterogeneous characteristics for biomedical and manufacturing applications. The state-of-the-art equipment and the wide spectrum expertise fall under one umbrella, enabling highly innovative research programs with layered manufacturing research thrusts..
