Diatoms generate their cell walls by silica biomineralization. The cell walls are composed of silica and organic macromolecules and show a complex microscopic structure. Analysis of this structure by ...

Most diatom images scanned from digital microscopes suffer from low contrast, noise, and contain unwanted floating particles and debris in a single image. Moreover, the active movement of diatom along ...

Using intricate geometry found in nature and refined through aerospace and biomedical design, scientists have now 3D-printed ...
