Advancements in Bone Regeneration: Using Bioactive Glass as a Scaffolding Material

The video discusses research at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital on regrowing diseased or damaged bone. Professor Julia Pollock and her team tested bioactive glass, a material used in dentistry, on human bone cells. The glass encouraged cell growth by acting as scaffolding. The team aims to develop a treatment combining bioactive glass with a patient's bone marrow, and eventually with stem cells, to treat bone disease without rejection.

What combination treatment are the researchers hoping to develop for bone disease?

What is the ultimate goal of the research team regarding the use of bio active glass?
