Smart scaffolds in tissue regeneration

Regen Biomater. 2018 Jun;5(3):125-128. doi: 10.1093/rb/rby007. Epub 2018 Apr 17.

Abstract

Recent advances in biofabrication technologies and chemical synthesis approaches have enabled the fabrication of smart scaffolds that aim to mimic the dynamic nature of the native extracellular matrix. These scaffolds have paved the way for tissue regeneration in a dynamic and controllable manner.
