abstract = "We present an electrically actuated approach for creating heterogeneous 3D micro-tissues using HeLa cancer cells and human foreskin fibroblasts models. In this methodology, we sequentially assemble cell types to ensure distinct spatial positioning for forming a dense heterogeneous cluster. An optimized sinusoidal voltage of 50 kHz was applied to the interdigitated electrode chip for inducing fluid flow to carry cells and deposit them in the center of the sessile droplet. This method is rapid, robust, and can provide repeatable cell micro-tissues using various cell concentrations and cell types.",
