N2 - Cell spheroids are increasingly used as building blocks in the engineering of tissues for therapeutics or disease models, as they mimic the cellular and extracellular interactions present in native tissues and organs [1]. While it has been established that spheroids can be fused together to form macroscale tissues [2], methods for precisely controlling their positioning and subsequent assembly within 3D are lacking. Here, we report the development of a 3D printing process that permits high-precision patterning of cell spheroids into self-healing hydrogels, including with open-channel structures for the introduction of drugs for screening.
