    Abstract: The present invention generally relates to foams and, in particular, to foams for applications such as drug delivery, and particles that are made from such foams. One aspect relates to foams or particles containing pharmaceutically active agents. The foam may comprise a pharmaceutically acceptable polymeric carrier. In some cases, the foam or particle has an unexpectedly high specific surface area. A high specific surface area may, in some cases, facilitate delivery or release of the pharmaceutically active agent when the foam or particles made from the foam (e.g., by milling) are administered to a subject. The foam may also exhibit a relatively high loading of the pharmaceutically active agent. In some cases, the foam may be a microcellular foam. In one set of embodiments, the foam is created using a supercritical fluid, such as supercritical C02. For example, a precursor to the foam, containing a pharmaceutically active agent, may be mixed with a foaming agent, then the pressure decreased to cause the foaming agent to expand, thereby causing a foam to form. The foam may then be subsequently ground or milled, or otherwise processed to form particles.

    Abstract: A method for manipulating a plurality of objects. The method includes the steps of providing a shaping source, applying the shaping source to create a spatially symmetric potential energy landscape, applying the potential energy landscape to a plurality of objects, thereby trapping at least a portion of the plurality of objects in the,24 potential energy landscape, spatially moving the potential energy landscape to manipulate the plurality of objects; and extinguishing the potential energy landscape, thereby causing the plurality of objects to move freely when the potential energy landscape is extinguished.

    Abstract: A system and method for bonding and unbonding of small objects using small adhesive particles. The system and method includes the use of a plurality of optical tweezers to manipulate objects to be bonded and adhesive particles suspended in a fluid. The objects to be bonded (or unbonded) and the adhesive particles are positioned by lower power optical tweezers and then an intense bonding optical tweezer is activated to cause the adhesive to join the objects together (or used to unbond objects).
