A multidisciplinary research team has developed a technique to replicate bone tissue complexity and bone-remodeling processes. This breakthrough could help researchers further their study of bone ...

When a bone break is too severe to heal on its own, surgeons often rely on grafts or rigid metal implants — but both come ...

A multidisciplinary team of researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst's Institute for Applied Life Sciences (IALS) have developed a technique to replicate bone tissue complexity and bone ...

Musculoskeletal disorders are a primary cause of disability worldwide, especially in aging societies like Japan. As ...

Osteoblasts act in a group to make bone over the course of several months. However, how osteoblasts cooperate with each other in vivo is still unknown. Now, researchers at Osaka University established ...

Bones broken in a skiing accident usually heal on their own. But if the break is too severe or a bone tumor needs to be ...

Inspired by how bones heal naturally, researchers have engineered a laser-structured hydrogel that could one day replace ...

Researchers developed a laser-activated hydrogel that mimics bone healing. Composed mostly of water, the biomimetic material can be precisely structured at nanoscale resolution. The team plans to ...
