About this Research Topic
Tissue engineering is a fostered field that seeks to cover the clinical need to replace injured, damaged or pathological tissues and organs. Rapid advances in this field would not be possible without developing and innovating new biofabricated materials. Innovative research into producing biofabricated materials results in tissue substitutes or cellular products designed to enhance, repair or replace various tissues and organs. These groundbreaking strategies are essential for further success and progression of the field to achieve relevant solutions in the clinical setting.
This Research Topic intends to cover recent advances and emerging developments in the design and development of biofabricated materials for engineering a wide range of tissues and organs. Specifically, it will pick up and show the next-generation development of critical types of biomaterials, both synthetic and natural, that are being investigated for tissue engineering applications. That includes biodegradable polymers, hydrogels, peptides, inorganic materials such as bioactive and glasses ceramics, and technologies and strategies to build these biomaterials for tissue engineering.
It will feature research that reports such progress, including fundamental studies on innovative biofabricated materials or translational studies and pre-clinical testing.
Therefore, we would like to invite academics in this space to submit full papers, communications, and reviews to this special issue with a particular focus given (but not restricted) on:
-Innovative biofabrication techniques with relevant/promising clinical outcomes
-New innovative, biocompatible and bioactive materials for tissue regeneration
-New models and platforms to build up/mimic native organ and tissue microarchitectures and functionalities
