In article number 1706913 , Ali Khademhosseini, Yu Shrike Zhang, and co‐workers report a multichannel coaxial extrusion system for microfluidic bioprinting of circumferentially multilayered cannular tissues in a single step, which allows these perfusable cannular constructs to be tuned continuously between monolayers and multiple layers at regular intervals across the length of a bioprinted tube. This represents a fundamental step toward creating functional cannular tissues.
