Abstract

Stimuli-responsive materials enabling the behaviour of the cells that reside within them to be controlled are vital for the development of instructive tissue scaffolds for tissue engineering. Herein we describe the preparation of conductive silk foam-based bone tissue scaffolds that enable the electrical stimulation of human mesenchymal stem cells to enhance their differentiation towards osteogenic outcomes.
