The invention relates to a method for producing vascularized biological tissue, having the steps of producing a network structure made of a plurality of interconnected filaments (11) of a support polymer, coating the network structure with a protein material, populating the coated network structure with endothelial cells (2, 2A) and tissue-forming biological cells (3), and dissolving the filaments (11) such that the vascularized tissue (1) is formed. The vascularized tissue (1) comprises cardiomyocytes, liver cells, renal cells, nerve cells, and/or pancreatic cells, for example. |
