it good and can we prove it? (L. Lohmander).
Embryonic development and the principles of tissue engineering
(A. Caplan).
The fundamentals of tissue engineering: scaffolds and
bioreactors (G. Vunjak-Novakovic).
Tissue-engineered versus native cartilage: linkage between
cellular mechano-transduction and biomechanical properties (J. Lee,
et al.).
From the preclinical model to the patient (E. Hunziker).
Mesenchymal stem cell therapy in joint disease (F. Barry).
Differentiated chondrocytes for cartilage tissue engineering (J.
Huckle, et al.).
Mesenchymal stem cells and bioceramics: strategies to regenerate
the skeleton (H. Ohgushi, et al.).
Bone marrow stromal cells and their use in regenerating bone (R.
Cancedda, et al.).
Studying the effect of different macrostructures on in
vitro cell behaviour and in vivo bone formation using a
tissue engineering approach (R. Dekker, et al.).
