Tissue Engineering processes walk through?

[leoflc]

Hi, I'm really wondering what are the approach and steps to construct an engineered tissue.
I've heard of in vivo, ex vivo, in vitro, but don't really know the differences, pros, and cons for those approach.
I also don't know processes that occur during the process of engineering a tissue (like how do they make those tissue).
What are the important factors that a tissue engineer really need to consider for making a tissue?

I'm quite interesting in getting into the field of bioengineering, and just would like to know a little more on the topic of tissue engineering.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks again!
Leo

Here is a nice resource on tissue engineering and regenerative medicine from the National Institutes of Health:
