About
Lih-Sheng Turng is a leading figure in advanced manufacturing and polymer processing, with a particular focus on micro- and nano-scale fabrication for biomedical applications. His research bridges mechanical engineering and tissue engineering, notably through innovations in microcontact printing (μCP). In his highly cited 2014 work, "High-precision robotic microcontact printing (R-μCP) utilizing a vision guided selectively compliant articulated robotic arm," Turng introduced a robotic system that dramatically improves the spatial precision of μCP, enabling the creation of complex, heterogeneous cell culture substrates that better mimic in vivo tissue microenvironments. This work, with 23 citations, exemplifies his contribution to overcoming the limitations of traditional stamping techniques. Turng’s broader impact is reflected in his extensive publication record and numerous patents, which have advanced the fields of injection molding, nanocomposites, and biofabrication. His achievements include serving as a Fellow of the Society of Plastics Engineers and receiving the International Polymer Processing Award, underscoring his influence on both academic research and industrial practice.
