About

Daniel Fougnier is a rising innovator in advanced additive manufacturing, with a focus on light-based 3D printing technologies. His primary research areas include multi-material stereolithography, meniscus-enabled fabrication, and high-resolution printing for biomedical and microfluidic applications. Fougnier’s most notable contribution is the development of the Multi-Material Gradient Printing using Meniscus-enabled Projection Stereolithography (MAPS) method, a breakthrough technique that enables seamless, high-resolution printing of structures with spatially varying material properties. This work, published in 2024 and already garnering 10 citations, addresses a critical limitation in light-based 3D printing by overcoming challenges in multi-material integration. The MAPS approach has significant implications for tissue engineering, soft robotics, and photonics, where gradient material compositions are essential. Fougnier’s research is distinguished by its practical impact, offering a scalable solution for fabricating complex, functional devices. As an emerging scholar, his work is rapidly gaining recognition for pushing the boundaries of what is possible in additive manufacturing, positioning him as a key figure in the next generation of fabrication technologies.
