Abstract

Abstract : In articule number1801218 by Wojciech Swieszkowski and co‐workers, highly aligned cell‐laden hydrogel yarns are collected on a rotating drum using a novel wet spinning strategy. Cells encapsulated into the hydrogel fibers elongate in the direction of the fiber axis, unraveling the potential of the proposed platform for tendon tissue engineering.
