A new culture platform is developed to allow for specific patterns during cancer cell growth. Using optically-induced electrokinetics, it is possible to imprint specific patterns in glass substrates topped with hydrogels. Additionally, this study shows that, effectively, cultured human breast cancer cells grow in the specific patterns designed with this technique. This can be useful to study the effects of cell geometry during cell expansion.
