Kiani Barnard-Pratt came to Alfred University as a biomaterials engineering major, with an interest in pursuing a career in ...

Using high-frequency sound waves directed at human stem cells, researchers have been able to grow bone cells in a procedure that could one day help patients regrow bone tissue. The new method uses the ...

Researchers in Sweden have engineered a cell-free cartilage scaffold that can guide the body to rebuild damaged bone. By removing the cells but preserving the structure and natural growth signals, the ...

The field of bone tissue engineering (BTE) was a promising avenue for addressing bone injuries and defects by constructing artificial scaffolds with bionic functionalities. Due to its unique 3D ...

In recent years, there have been tremendous advances in tissue engineering, the field of biomaterials research and development that combines living cells with 3D microstructures and biologically ...

Researchers have used sound waves to turn stem cells into bone cells, in a tissue engineering advance that could one day help patients regrow bone lost to cancer or degenerative disease. The ...

Piezoelectricity in native bones has been well recognized as the key factor in bone regeneration. However, the current additive-manufactured scaffolds mainly focus on the reconstruction of bionic ...

Bone and skeletal injuries cause extensive and long-term functional impairments worldwide. In a new study, researchers at Lund University in Sweden show how a cell-free cartilage structure can safely ...

TALLAHASSEE, Fla.-- As the nation ages, an estimated 44 million Americans, including at least half of those ages 50 and older, are at risk for osteoporosis, making their bones fragile and vulnerable ...
