Material mimics real bone to repair injuries faster - Biotech's Future

The video discusses the development of a synthetic bone filler material that mimics natural bone composition and structure. It explains how the material aids in bone regeneration, particularly in critical size defects where natural regrowth is insufficient. The material's layered architecture supports faster bone formation compared to traditional honeycomb structures. Challenges in maintaining the material's structure during surgical application are addressed, and future directions include incorporating drug molecules to enhance bone growth, making it effective for all ages.
