Scaffold-based and scaffold-free approaches

In living tissue, cells exist in three-dimensional (3D) environments that foster intricate cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions and complex transport dynamics. Yet in conventional two-dimensional (2D) cell cultures, cells are grown on flat and rigid substrates that often fail to capture the natural 3D environments present in tissue.
