Large-scale perfused tissues via synthetic 3D soft microfluidics

S. Grebenyuk, A. R. A. Fattah, et al.

This groundbreaking research by Sergei Grebenyuk and colleagues from KU Leuven unveils a new method for vascularizing engineered tissues and organoids, achieving impressive perfusion in multi-mm³ constructs. The study not only demonstrates the viability and proliferation of these tissues but also shows accelerated neural differentiation, paving the way for complex and scalable human tissue models.
