Factors including the spatial-temporal delivery of bioactive agents, extracellular matrix biological component, topographical and mechanical cues of the scaffold are being studied with the aim of gaining knowledge for the future design of functional scaffold and pre-implantation culturing conditions for stem cell-based cartilage tissue engineering. \u00a0The interdisciplinary research involved
