Funded Activity Summary

The repair of large bone defects represents a significant clinical problem. Evolving tissue engineering technologies may lead to significant improvements in orthopaedic treatments for these problems. We plan to compare novel biological approaches designed to maximise new bone formation while preventing bone resorption with existing synthetic graft materials. Our research data will be readily translated from the laboratory to a clinical setting.
