Abstract excerpt
Autologous fat transfer is a common procedure that patients undergo to rejuvenate large soft tissue defects. However, these surgeries are complicated by limited tissue sources, donor-site morbidity, and necrosis. While the biofabrication of fat tissue can serve as a clinical option for reconstructive surgery, the influence of matrix mechanics, specifically stiffness and viscosity, on adipogenesis requires further...
