Abstract

Abstract : Current understanding of brain development, derived from suboptimal in vitro and animal models, is rudimentary. In article number 2002183, Francis G. Szele, Hagan Bayley, and co‐workers introduce a means to print human neural cells in a soft, biocompatible extracellular matrix. The approach provides precise, customizable construction of natural and unnatural patterns of cells, and yields important insights into the development of the human cerebral cortex.
