3D bioprinted hydrogel scaffolds laden with Schwann cells for use as nerve repair conduits
The goal of nerve tissue engineering is to promote and guide axon growth across a site of nerve injury without misdirection. Bioengineered tissue scaffolds have been shown to be promising for the regeneration of damaged peripheral nerves. Schwann cells play a pivotal role following nerve injury by f...
