The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Bioceramics of calcium orthophosphates. (2010, background): “This field of science(9) started more than two decades ago [307,308] and a famous review article ‘‘Tissue Engineering’’ by Langer & Vacanti [309] has greatly contributed to the promotion of tissue engineering research worldwide.”
Fibroblast Growth Factors: Biology, Function, and Application for Tissue Regeneration (2010, background): “Apart from the polymer groups, bioceramics are promising candidate materials for grafting defects of hard tissues, such as bones and teeth [72–79].”
Cellulose-Based Bio- and Nanocomposites: A Review (2011, background): “Cells synthesize the matrix for the new tissues, support holds and keeps the ambient proper for the growth, while the growth factors facilitate and promote the cell regeneration [210].”
A Comparative Review of Natural and Synthetic Biopolymer Composite Scaffolds (2021, background): “This slow degradation makes PCL less attractive for soft tissue engineering applications but is more desirable for long-term implants and controlled release applications [8,13,115] such as bone TE where mechanical and other physical properties should be maintained for at least 6 months by scaffoldin”
