Abstract

Extracellular Matrix-Based Bioinks In article number 2011252, Khoon S. Lim, Jinah Jang, and co-workers present a novel visible-light activated tissue-derived bioink that can fabricate clinically relevant volumetric tissue analogs on a centimeter scale. These bioinks enable print complex structures with increased shape fidelity, improved printing versatility, and even excellent tissue regenerative capacity. These advantages of the light-activated bioinks open new avenues for the biofabrication of soft tissues applicable in regenerative medicine.
