This study presents the development of large‐scale (15 cm2) cartilage constructs with anisotropic mechanical properties using melt electrowritten (MEW) microfiber reinforced cell‐laden gelatin methacryloyl (gelMA). These constructs mimic the mechanical behavior of native cartilage, providing a suitable environment for Articular Cartilage ...
