Minimally invasive tissue engineering composites and cell printing.

Minimally invasive tissue engineering composites and cell printing.

Injectable composites combined with tissue-printing technology for improved bioengineered devices. The invisible engineering problem, the one often ignored, is the design of a readily implantable, precisely assembled cellular construct. Previous studies have consistently shown that composite tissue-...
