Electrospinning: 3D Near-Field Electrospinning of Biomaterial Microfibers with Potential for Blended Microfiber-Cell-Loaded Gel Composite Structures (Adv. Healthcare Mater. 19/2017)

3D near-field electrospinning is capable of depositing single nano- and microfibers with extraordinary precision. This image demonstrates a stem cell attached to perpendicular microfibers. As described by Justin L. Brown and co-workers in article number 1700456, this process can be multiplexed with other 3D printing techniques to build a wide array of complex structures for applications, such as, regenerative medicine.
