Through the BioInnovation Institute Science Prize for Innovation, the editors of Science seek to recognize bold researchers who are asking fundamental questions at the intersection of the life sciences and entrepreneurship...

We are pleased to open the call for applications for the CBS Mentorship and Professional Development, a program specifically designed to connect professionals outside of academia with graduate students and postdoctoral fellows coming from the Canadian biomaterial s community...

14th Intl Symposium on Biodegradable Metals for Applications on behalf of Professor Mantovani and the Quebec City Student Chapter Want to discover the next generation of bioresorbable metals aiming to bridge the gap between biomaterials and tissue engineering for pediatric, dental, orthopedic, vascular, cardiac, neurological applications, and more? The final program of the upcoming 14th Intl Symposium on Biodegradable Metals for Biomedical Applications is now online...

Metal by-products, including metal ions, released in greater amount from metal-on-metal MM hip implants than from metal-on-polyethylene implants are a cause for concern as they can compromise the functionality and survivorship of the implants due to adverse tissue reactions 1, 2 ...

Nowadays, several protocols are proposed to induce the osteogenesis new bone tissue formation in order to regenerate or replace bone tissue when it is severely damaged...

Adipose tissue has a high capacity for expansion and regression throughout mammalian life. Nevertheless, following reconstructive surgeries designed to augment adipose depots, or tissue injury, adipose tissue displays limited regenerative capacity, and is instead often replaced with scar tissue...

Better vascular formation can promote the transportation of nutrients and oxygen resulting in accelerated wound healing...

In the area of cancer research, a major issue with conventional 2D cell culture is that it cannot reproduce complex in vivo cell-extracellular matrix ECM interactions, nor those between cancer epithelial cells and stromal compartment, which play a crucial role in tumorigenesis and progression...
