What the project is about

The limited efficacy of conventional treatment strategies for large bone defects and the increasing aged population has inspired the SBR project consortium to propose a SMART RESORBABLE BONE (SRB) IMPLANT embedding stem cells and bioactive agents with the aim of a controllable and fast restoration. The proposed solution includes 3D-printed medical grade polymers enriched with electrospun fibers (for increased mechanical properties) that can be customised for patient physiology, pathology, and gender.
