M.  aAdvances in functional polymer nanofibersbfrom spinning fabrication techniques to recent biomedical applications.h[electronic resource]  c2020  ap. 45673-45701  aFunctional polymeric micro-/nanofibers have emerged as promising materials for the construction of structures potentially useful in biomedical fields. Among all kinds of technologies to produce polymer fibers, spinning methods have gained considerable attention. Herein, we provide a recent review on advances in the design of micro- and nanofibrous platforms via spinning techniques for biomedical applications. Specifically, we emphasize electrospinning, solution blow spinning, centrifugal spinning, and microfluidic spinning approaches. We first introduce the fundamentals of these spinning methods and then highlight the potential biomedical applications of such micro- and nanostructured fibers for drug delivery, tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, disease modeling, and sensing/biosensing. Finally, we outline the current challenges and future perspectives of spinning techniques for the practical applications of polymer fibers in the biomedical field.  aCentrifugal spinning  aElectrospinning  aFunctional nanofibers  aMicrofluidic spinning  aSolution blow spinning1 aCORREA, D.
