Biomimetic Approaches to Tissue Engineering: Mimicking Nature for Tissue Repair

Tissue engineering is an interdisciplinary field that aims to produce functional biological tissues using a combination of cells, biomaterials, and bioactive molecules. The ultimate goal of tissue engineering is to develop therapeutic strategies for the regeneration or replacement of damaged or diseased tissues. However, the complexity of biological tissues presents a significant challenge for tissue engineering. Thus, researchers have turned to nature for inspiration and developed biomimetic approaches to tissue engineering, which mimics the structure and function of natural tissues
