摘要

Four surface-acoustic-wave (SAW) devices that create organized cellular fibers with differing cell types (purple, red, green, orange) are shown. As T. J. Huang and co-workers describe on page 8632, the SAWs pattern cells within a polymer solution, which is polymerized and extracted to make complex tissue structures. The organization of cells within such fibers mimics the cellular organization found in nature, which impacts the tissue's development and function.
