Toward 3D‐Bioprinted Models of the Liver to Boost Drug Development
Macromolecular Bioscience, Volume 22, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 During preclinical studies, bidimensional in vitro models and animal models are synergically exploited to forecast safety and efficacy. 3D‐bioprinting is exploited to produce complex in vitro models, able to mimic physiological and pathological conditions, thus aiming to overcome the conventional paradigm.
