  Design and Synthesis of Biomimetic Hydrogels for Tissue Engineering Applications
  Author(s): Rose Alley*
  
  Tissue engineering is a multidisciplinary field that aims to regenerate, repair, or replace damaged or diseased tissues using a combination of cells, biomaterials, and biochemical factors. One of the key components in tissue engineering is the scaffold, which provides structural support for cell attachment, proliferation, and differentiation. Hydrogels, a class of crosslinked polymer networks capable of absorbing large amounts of water, have emerged as promising scaffold materials for tissue engineering applications due to their biocompatibility, tunable properties, and similarity to the native extracellular matrix of tissues. In recent years, there has been growing interest in designing and synthesizing biomimetic hydrogels that mimic the structural and functional properties of native tissues to improve their performance in tissue engineering applications...
