h‑FIBER: Microfluidic Topographical Hollow Fiber for Studies of Glomerular Filtration Barrier

Kidney-on-a-chip devices may revolutionize the discovery of new therapies. However, fabricating a 3D glomerulus remains a challenge, due to a requirement for a microscale soft material with complex topography to support cell culture in a native configuration. Here, we describe the use of microfluidic spinning to recapitulate complex concave and convex topographies over multiple length scales, required for biofabrication of a biomimetic 3D …
