Abstract
AbstractTissue engineering (TE) has the potential to revolutionize human healthcare through creation of artificial tissue for medical applications. The vascular supply plays an important role in this process. To realize such vascularized tissues in the future, we developed a vascularized bioreactor system. The goal in the near future is to standardize the systems to enable to mimic existing in vivo systems. The long-term goal is the production of vascularized bone tissue for treatment of large bone defects in injured patients.
