Research context and placement

An extended tissue-fabrication grouping; the whole review does not establish direct tissue-contact interface performance.

Boundary case: assigned to the closest interface for navigation. Read the rationale and cross-links together; the primary theme does not delimit the study. Placement of foundational work does not establish direct bioelectronic application.

Research overview and key contributions

The review links spatial hydrogel patterning with temporal release/degradation control for tissue engineering.

It connects surface modification, microfabrication and printing with dynamic biochemical control.

Open challenges

Editorial question: how are spatial/temporal control and retained cell function validated together?

Comparison context

Distinguish gel chemistry, cells, light exposure, release/degradation times and intended endpoint.
