Development of a bioink to enable bioprinting of stromal tissue mimics

Human tissues are complex architectures made up of a combination of cells spatially organised within distinct matrices. Cells make and maintain this matrix, through which they receive biochemical, mechanical, and topological stimuli that are crucial to establish and maintain tissue function. Read more
