Abstract

Abstract : In article number 2011162, Marie‐Eve Aubin‐Tam and co‐workers report a 3D bioprinting approach for the fabrication of photosynthetic living materials composed of microalgae deposited onto bacterial cellulose. The bioprinted living materials developed with this technique exhibit regenerative nature display mechanical robustness and can be employed in a range of innovative environmental applications including artificial leaves, photosynthetic biogarments, and adhesive labels.
