Cartilage defects pose significant challenges in terms of healing. Current treatments have limitations in size, availability, or durability.[1,2] Biofabrication aims to restore tissue functionality by placing biological active components in a pre-defined 3D organization, typically using soft hydrogels for cell preferences.[3] These hydrogels can be mechanically reinforced with... -

Introduction:
Go to contribution page
Replicating physiologically relevant tissue environments in vitro requires both sophisticated biological design and reliable scalable fabrication. Current approaches often rely on complex biofabrication methods such as stereolithography (SLA) and melt electrowriting (MEW), which are time-intensive, laborious, and lack reproducibility at scale [1,2]. To overcome these...
