As momentum for the utilization of cultured cells increases, cell manipulation technology using light is being investigated as a promising means to meet the diversifying needs for bio–manipulation. In particular, the control of crosslinking structure by light has been actively investigated as a new technology to create an unprecedented cell culture environment. This article focuses on polymer systems in which cross–linking is controlled on–demand by light, and introduces trends in related research at home and abroad, with particular emphasis on the application to optical control of biosystems, including the work of the authors.
