Abstract
Devices, systems, and techniques are described for printing pre-aligned microtissues into larger tissue constructs. For example, a method of printing a tissue construct includes aligning cells in a first direction to create pre-aligned microtissues, suspending the pre-aligned microtissues in a liquid to create a bioink, and depositing the pre-aligned microtissues in a second direction to create the tissue construct.
