Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the development and application of biofabrication techniques, including 3D printing, microfluidics, and other advanced manufacturing methods, to create engineered tissues and biomaterials. Research explores the creation of functional tissue constructs for regenerative medicine, disease modeling, and drug testing, with an emphasis on mimicking native tissue structures, mechanical properties, and biological functions. Key areas include the engineering of vascular networks, bone, skin, neural tissue, and muscle, as well as the development of biomimetic scaffolds and bioinks. The journal also addresses challenges in clinical translation, such as material biocompatibility, process standardization, and the integration of biophysical and biochemical cues.
