Engineering Multi‐Spheroid Bone Constructs Through the Fusion of Large MSC Spheroids
Journal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 44, Issue 9, September 2026.ABSTRACT Bone tissue engineering offers the promise of creating alternatives to bone grafts to facilitate defect repair. Although many different approaches have been investigated, recent work has focused on harnessing the potential of scaffold‐free approaches, such as spheroids, to create viable engineered bone tissue.
