Mesenchymal stem cells, harvested from the bone marrow, alter their behavior depending on the local curvature of the 3D‐printed surfaces they are seeded upon, as described by Ansgar Petersen and co‐workers in article number 1600347. While concave surfaces promote stem cell migration, convex surfaces enhance cell specification into bone cells, a process driven by curvature‐dependent forces on the cell's nucleus.
