ABSTRACT Bioprinting is a growing area in the field of tissue engineering that offers a potential solution to the global shortage of organ transplants. Ensuring high printability is crucial for bioprinting. To better understand printability, a design of experiment model that examines printing speed and pressure in extrusion‐based printing was developed.

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells for the Treatment of Lysosomal Storage Disorders
ABSTRACT Lysosomal disorders (LSDs) are a group of rare metabolic disorders, with an overall incidence of 1:4800 to 1:8000 live births. LSDs are primarily caused by dysfunctional lysosomal enzymes, which typically lead to the progressive accumulation of substrates within cellular lysosomes.
