Enabled by their unique capability of mimicking some of the features of the extracellular matrix, Dario Pisignano, Younan Xia, and Jiajia Xue describe how to apply electrospun nanofibers to construct scaffolding materials, from 2D membranes to 3D sponges, for maneuvering the differentiation of various types of stem cells into different phenotypes, in article number 2000735.
