The primary goal in musculoskeletal (MSK) tissue regeneration is to recapitulate native tissue function and structure via repair and/or augmentation of damaged tissue. To achieve success, this multifaceted process can involve combining several techniques including fabrication of cellular and acellular scaffolds and hydrogels, bioprinting, noninvasive tissue monitoring (i.e. MRI, CT), functional assessment of tissue, physical therapy, etc.
This research topic is soliciting articles of interest to muscle, nerve, tendon, and bone regeneration. The intent of this research topic is to highlight high-quality fundamental research focused on improving the structure and function of damaged tissue.
Types of submissions include original research and technical reports. Contributions to this research topic should address the biomaterial science and topics include, but are not limited to:
• Volumetric muscle loss
• Peripheral neuropathy
• Vascularization of implanted tissues
• Validation of in vitro models of MSK injury
• Preclinical imaging of MSK tissues
• Bone and tendon interface
• Sustained biomaterial release
