Image: The figure shows a photo of the team’s spheroids taken using immunofluorescence imaging, a type of microscopy that allows biologists to view specific proteins or molecules inside a cell or tissue. A total of 16 spheroids, although some are not visible in the figure, are positioned in a microgel structure using a specialized form of 3D printing. In their work, a team of researchers demonstrated that these spheroids can help support the formation of new blood vessels in regenerated bone tissue.
