In this talk I will describe how light may be used to perform a range of tasks at the cellular level. In particular I will show how we may move and sort cells with light. Additionally we can use light to permit foreign DNA or other therapeutic agents to enter cells. Light may also be used to guide the growth of neuronal cells – the mechanism remains elusive but progress towards its understanding will be shown.
