Bioprinting: 3D bioprinting of vascularized, heterogeneous cell‐laden tissue constructs (Adv. Mater. 19/2014)
Advanced Materials, 2014•Wiley Online Library
JA Lewis and co‐workers report on page 3124 a new bio‐printing method for fabricating 3D
tissue constructs replete with vasculature, multiple types of cells, and extracellular matrix.
These intricate, heterogeneous structures are created by precisely co‐printing multiple
materials, known as bio‐inks, in three dimensions. These 3D microengineered
environments open new avenues for drug screening and tissue engineering. Cover image
