A bone-like composite developed at EPFL uses naturally occurring enzymes to accelerate mineralization through an ...
Researchers have developed a method to 3D print porous scaffolds made from hydroxyapatite (HA) – the primary mineral component of bone.
Researchers at EPFL 3D printed porous bone scaffolds to support bone regeneration. Learn about the process here.
Researchers have published a method for 3D-printing an ink that contains calcium carbonate-producing bacteria. The 3D-printed mineralized bio-composite is unprecedentedly strong, light, and ...
From hot flashes and night sweats to heart health and digestion, women experience many changes during menopause. One often overlooked effect is a gradual decrease in bone strength and density, which ...
Newsweek discussed the study with a doctor, who said that "bone loss can occur relatively quickly during rapid weight loss." ...
Tumor cells are known to be fickle sleeper agents, often lying dormant in distant tissues for years before reactivating and forming metastasis. Numerous factors have been studied to understand why the ...
Materials that encourage mineralization, mimicking the process in the human body, are becoming increasingly important in medicine and technology. This process, which occurs at the interface between ...
