TL;DR: The gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA)-based hydrogels as discussed by the authors combine the biocompatibility of natural matrices with the reproducibility, stability and modularity of synthetic biomaterials.

TL;DR: Methods to determine drug diffusion coefficients and in vitro and in vivo models used to assess drug release and efficacy are reviewed to provide guidelines and harmonized practices when investigating novel hydrogel drug delivery systems.

TL;DR: This is the first study presenting cartilage tissue-engineered constructs that capture the overall transient, equilibrium and dynamic biomechanical properties of human articular cartilage.

TL;DR: It is reported that ultrasound standing waves can be used to organize myoblast populations in material systems for the engineering of aligned muscle tissue constructs and is the first instance of engineered cell fibers formed from the differentiation of acoustically patterned cells.

TL;DR: In this article, an innovative system capable of applying precise uni- or biaxial mechanical stimulation to developing cartilage neotissues in a tightly controlled and automated fashion was developed.
