Researchers have created networks of microchannels in a
variety of hydrogels using a micromolding strategy. Networks of channels enhanced osteogenic
cell viability and differentiation in cell-laden micromolded gels. The channels could be lined with a confluent
layer of endothelial cells to create an engineered vasculature. The hydrogels remained fully perfused.
