Abstract
Inside Back Cover: Neuroblastoma cancer cells aggregating inside the mesoscale pores of a bioprinted construct. The combination of tailored porous materials with 3D bioprinting techniques enables to control both the micro and macro architecture of cell-laden constructs. The generation of improved in vitro mimics of in vivo tissues (healthy or diseased) would help precision medicine and the development of patient specific therapeutic approaches. This is reported by Elisa Cimetta and co-workers in article number 2200357.
