1. Effect of Surface Nanotopography on Blood-Biomaterial Interactions
Abstract : Biologically inspired materials are being developed with the aim of improving the integration of medical implants and minimizing non-desirable host reactions. A promising strategy is the design of topographically patterned surfaces that resemble those found in the extracellular environment. READ MORE

2. Additives Increasing the Bone-Forming Potential around Calcium Phosphate Cements : Statin, Strontium and Silicon
Abstract : More than one million people worldwide receive some kind of bone graft each year. Grafts are often needed following bone tumour removal or traumatic fractures to fill voids in the bone and to aid in the healing process. READ MORE

3. The biological and physical performance of high strength dicalcium phosphate cement in physiologically relevant models
Abstract : The chemical properties of calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) are very similar to the mineral phase of bone. CPCs are, consequently, very effective substrates (scaffolds) for tissue engineering; bone and stem cells attach readily, and can proliferate and differentiate to form new bone tissue. READ MORE

4. Nanofeatures of Biomaterials and their Impact on the Inflammatory Response
Abstract : Nanomaterials offer an advantage over traditional biomaterials since cells naturally communicate via nanoscale interactions. The extracellular matrix, for example, modulates adhesion and cellular functions via nanoscale features. READ MORE
