In her poster presentation, Lam will present a novel method for the construction of chemically functional hydrogel microscale patterns. Dip Pen Nanolithography (DPN) is used to directly deposit hydrogel precursors at defined location and polymerize them to form hydrogels. This method allows for rapid fabrication of high resolution patterns.

The Society for Biomaterials Exposition will highlight the latest innovations in materials science, molecular and cell biology, and engineering. It will include symposia, general sessions, workshops, panel discussions, and tutorials covering all aspects of basic, applied, and translational biomaterials science. 2011.biomaterials.org/?CFID=7100592&CFTOKEN=23055027&jsessionid=883063c3c5e236216262
