Aligned Cell Sheets Grown on Thermo‐Responsive Substrates with Microcontact Printed Protein Patterns

toform three dimensional, completely biological tissue constructs.However, cell sheets are typically grown on uniform PIPAAmsurfaces, which results in randomly oriented cells. Attempts topattern PIPAAm substrates has thus far been limited tomulti-step processes with low resolution (pattern dimensions 0.5mm) that were designed for spatially segregating multiplecells types.
