On page 5427, C. P. Neu and co‐workers report on successfully combining the benefits of native tissue biochemistry/structure with the tunability of reconstituted biomaterials for the formation of clinically relevant tissue composites. Native articular cartilage and reconstituted type I collagen form a moldable ‘cartilage clay’ that can be custom designed to meet the mechanical, biochemical, and geometric needs of a clinical implant; showing the capability to locally differentiate progenitor cells.
