About

Shaochen Chen is a pioneering figure in advanced manufacturing and biomedical engineering, whose research centers on the development of cutting-edge 3D-printing technologies for functional biomedical microdevices. His major contributions lie in bridging the gap between additive manufacturing and clinical applications, particularly through light-based and extrusion-based approaches that enable the fabrication of complex, microscale structures impossible to create with traditional methods. Chen’s work has been highly influential, with his seminal 2017 review on 3D-printing of biomedical microdevices accumulating over 130 citations, underscoring its impact on the field. In this comprehensive review, he systematically compared the advantages and limitations of various 3D-printing classes, providing a critical roadmap for researchers seeking to engineer custom implants, drug delivery systems, and tissue scaffolds. Beyond this foundational work, Chen is recognized for advancing scalable, high-resolution fabrication techniques that merge precision with functional versatility. His research continues to shape the future of personalized medicine and regenerative engineering, making him a key thought leader at the intersection of materials science, optics, and biomedical device innovation.
