This rare outcome in cartilage repair suggests true biological cartilage regeneration, not merely defect filling Unlike ...

The field of biomaterials science is undergoing a revolutionary transformation driven by advances in material design, nanotechnology, and biomedical ...

A group has proposed a new concept of mechanobiomaterials, which is inspired by the natural phenomenon that biomechanics mediate tissue repair and regeneration. The rationale behind this new concept ...

Chronic wounds, especially diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), venous leg ulcers, and pressure injuries, remain a major global challenge, often recurring at the ...

Bone biomaterials play a vital role in bone repair by providing the necessary substrate for cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation and by modulating cell activity and function. In past ...

Researchers classify biomaterials in several ways: by their origin, how they interact with tissue, and their intrinsic material properties. Natural biomaterials, such as collagen, chitosan, and bone, ...

Northwestern Engineering’s Guillermo A. Ameer has been elected a Fellow of Biomaterials Science and Engineering (FBSE) by the International Union of Societies for Biomaterials Science and Engineering ...

The inflammatory response plays a major role in the body’s response to injury, disease, or implantation of a biomaterial. When the inflammatory response functions normally, it can be a powerful force ...

Composite biomaterials are engineered by combining two or more distinct constituents with complementary properties. This amalgamation results in a final material with superior characteristics compared ...

Biomaterials are materials used to build medical devices or implants/prostheses, meant to restore or replace lost or impaired body functions. They are derived from natural, synthetic or semi-synthetic ...
