- Abstract
The article discusses a study related to generating functional skin models which is a substantial progress to mimic structures and complex functions of human skin. Topics include native skin maintenance in a chip-based perfusion system, formation of functional neopapillae, and necessity of bioengineering for the implementation of adipose tissue, hair follicles and a functional vascular network into these models.
