Tissue Bioprinting: Promise and Challenges.

The article discusses the promise and challenges of tissue bioprinting in the field of regenerative medicine. Bioprinting is a manufacturing approach that allows for the precise deposition of biomaterials and cells in a 3D environment, enabling the creation of complex and defined structures. It has the potential to address clinical needs such as tissue repair and replacement. Bioprinting also has the potential to advance our understanding of biological processes and functions by creating biomimetic tissue models. However, there are still challenges to overcome, including engineering tissue complexity, post-print tissue maturation, standardized manufacture, and regulatory frameworks. Despite these challenges, the outlook for bioprinting remains promising, with exciting advances expected in the future. [Extracted from the article]
