Published online in Biomaterials on 5th July, this paper describes the construction and testing of living artificial nerve tissue that could potentially be used in regenerative medicine to repair peripheral nerves. The Engineered Neural Tissue is made by organising Schwann cells and collagen into robust sheets of aligned cellular material that support and guide neuronal […]
