Multiple proteins are simultaneously patterned into complex architectures by a novel method, as reported by E. Delamarche and co‐workers in their Communication on page 6837 ff. This method involves three elementary steps: inking of proteins onto an elastomer, subtracting the proteins to form a pattern by using a nanotemplate, and printing the remaining proteins onto the substrate. Combining and repeating these steps allows the patterning of proteins on surfaces with arbitrary patterns and a resolution better than 100 nm.
