Summary
This special issue should cover research spanning from fundamental polymer design and synthesis, polymer analysis and characterization, polymer fabrication, and other related fields with a goal to promote the field of tissue engineering and stem cell-based therapies.
Research and review articles on using advanced fabrication techniques like microfluidic chips or 3D/bioprinting would be a plus for the special issue.
Characterization of cell-cell or cell-material interaction, influencing factors governing stem cell fate decision, and drug delivery schemes should be included in publications.
