## Abstract Tissue‐engineering scaffold‐based strategies have suffered from limited cell depth viability when cultured __in vitro__, with viable cells existing within the outer periphery of the fluid–scaffold interface. This is primarily believed to be due to the lack of nutrient delivery into and

## Abstract Given the inherent shortcomings of autografts and allografts, donor‐site morbidity and risk of disease transmission, respectively, alternatives to traditional bone grafting options are warranted. To this end, poly(lactide‐__co__‐glycolide) (PLAGA) and __in situ__‐synthesized amorphous h
## Abstract A novel scaffold with large dimension of 3–4 cm in length and 1–1.5 cm in diameter was designed and fabricated for engineering large bone tissue __in vivo__. The scaffold was constructed by filling hydroxyapatite (HA) spherules into a porous HA tube. The HA spherules were prepared by ch
## Abstract **Summary:** Novel porous‐conductive chitosan scaffolds were fabricated by incorporating conductive polypyrrole (PPy) particles into a chitosan matrix and employing a phase separation technique to build pores inside the scaffolds. Conductive polypyrrole particles were prepared with a mi
## Abstract A zirconia (ZrO~2~) porous scaffold was coated with a gradient apatite layer to induce osteoconductivity with the use of a combination of sol–gel and powder slurry methods. The ZrO~2~ was used to impart mechanical strength and the apatite layer was coated for functional biocompatibility
## Abstract The aim of this study was to develop a bioactive, degradable, and cytocompatible akermanite (Ca~2~MgSi~2~O~7~) scaffold with high porosity and pore interconnectivity. In brief, porous akermanite scaffolds were prepared using polymer sponge method. The porosity and corresponding compress
