Abstract
This invention provides devices comprising substrates with wells for the patterning of particles or cells. Such devices are loaded with a suspension of particles or cell, and the entrapped particles or cells are transferred to a second substrate, where patterning of individual particles or cells occurs. Methods of cellular analysis, cell growth studies, surface modification, optical display fabrication and curved surface patterning using devices of this invention are described.
