Holograms boost 3D printing efficiency and resolution

Published:17.02.25 — Scientists have used holographic projections to bring unprecedented resolution to a light-based 3D printing technique. The method allows the fabrication of millimeter-scale objects within seconds using significantly less energy than previous approaches.

Scientists discover mechanism driving molecular network formation

Published:14.02.25 — EPFL scientists have identified a new property, interface flexibility, that controls how certain molecules naturally self-organize into crystalline supramolecular networks. This significant discovery could change the design of synthetic molecules for network growth at the nanoscale.

Designing life with artificial intelligence

Published:11.02.25 — “Designing Life with AI” is a cross-disciplinary MAKE project in which EPFL students get a chance to explore the research process by designing proteins. A total of eight research labs are involved.
