About
Jan Giachino is a pioneering researcher in the field of tissue engineering and biofabrication, with a primary focus on developing functional, macroscale skeletal muscle tissues. Their most cited work, "Perfusable biohybrid designs for bioprinted skeletal muscle tissue" (2023, 7 citations), introduces a groundbreaking approach to creating centimeter-scale engineered muscle that can accurately mimic muscle pathophysiology. Giachino’s major contribution lies in designing perfusable biohybrid constructs that integrate vascular-like channels to ensure cell survival and support elements for mechanical stimulation—critical advances for studying muscle development, disease, regeneration, and drug response. This work addresses a fundamental bottleneck in tissue engineering: scaling up constructs while maintaining viability and functionality. Though early in their career, Giachino’s research has already garnered attention for its innovative combination of bioprinting and biohybrid design, positioning them as an emerging leader in regenerative medicine. Their achievements promise to accelerate the development of in vitro models for drug testing and potential therapeutic applications for muscle disorders.
