This review summarizes recent advances in biomaterials engineering, with a particular focus on hydrogel scaffolds, and their potential applications in the development of in vitro stem cell niche models and for in vivo tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Engineered hydrogel scaffolds, with their highly tailorable mechanical and biochemical properties, offer great promise in addressing the current clinical challenges associated with translating stem cell‐based therapies.
