Facile Fabrication of Three-Dimensional Hydrogel Film with Complex Tissue Morphology

In this study, we proposed a simple and easy method for fabricating a three-dimensional (3D) structure that can recapitulate the morphology of a tissue surface and deliver biological molecules into complex-shaped target tissues. To fabricate the 3D hydrogel film structure, we utilized a direct tissu...
