Shape-programmed 3D printed swimming microtori for the transport of passive and active agents

While there are many demonstrations of self-propelled synthetic particles, there are fewer realisations of multimode swimming for the same particle. Here the authors demonstrate two swimming behaviours in magnetically manipulated microtori and show that these can manipulate other active particles.
