The Bionic Interface: Considering the Material Mediated Electrical Stimulation of Stem Cells
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Electrical stimulation directs stem cell fate in tissue engineering. Cellular responses are influenced by membrane properties, intrinsic cell state, material charge‐transport characteristics, and the applied electrical signal. Additionally, a material’s ability to inject, store, and redistribute charge further modulates these responses.
