Gravity, tissue engineering, and the missing link

Costa-Almeida R, Granja PL, Gomes ME. Trends Biotechnol 2017;36:343-7.

The influence of microgravity and hypergravity on living systems has attracted significant attention, but the use of these tools in tissue engineering (TE) remains relatively unexplored. This Forum article highlights an emerging field of research to uncover new potential applications at the interface between altered gravity and TE.
