      abstract     = {During the development of the nervous system, neurons sense
                      and respond to topographical and biochemical cues found in
                      the brain's native environment. Such niche-specific cues are
                      pivotal for neural tissue formation and development and have
                      been now widely exploited in neural tissue engineering to
                      develop biologically-inspired scaffolds able to trigger a
                      desired neuronal behavior. In particular, anisotropic
                      aligned fibers, recapitulating the design of extending
                      axonal tracts or aligned fibers found in the extracellular
                      environment, have emerged as ideal candidates to guide cell
                      alignment and elongation along the substrate main axis as
                      well as promote neuronal differentiation. Among natural
                      polymers used for coatings, melanins, including eumelanin,
                      have been shown to possess antioxidant, anti-inflammatory,
                      immunomodulatory, and photo-protective properties. Here,
                      aligned poly(lactic acid) (PLA) fibers are fabricated via
                      electrospinning and then coated with eumelanin via spin
                      coating. Eumelanin-coated aligned PLA fibers are highly
                      biocompatible and greatly influenced the adhesion,
                      morphology, and spreading of SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells.
                      Furthermore, the eumelanin coating is crucial in promoting
                      cell alignment at the cell-material interface and SH-SY5Y
                      cell maturation towards a more mature neuronal phenotype.},
