Dear CBS Members, The World Biomaterials Congress 2024 WBC2024 is soliciting recommendations for plenary speakers...

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...

N-functionalized polypyrrole PPy is electrically conductive and can be readily activated with biomolecules, which is particularly useful in biosensors 1 ...

Electrospinning is a simple fabrication technique used to create fibrous scaffolds with properties such as high surface area-to-volume ratio and porosity that make them applicable for wound dressings1...

Recently, microfabrication technologies have been used for the development of blood oxygenators to treat neonates with respiratory distress and to overcome the limitations of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation ECMO and mechanical ventilation1,2...

Bisphosphonates are calcium-binding drugs that inhibit the bone-resorbing function of osteoclasts1. Nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates target farnesyl diphosphate synthase, an enzyme of the mevalonate pathway...

Recently, Graphene has shown its potential for applications in tissue engineering 1-3 . Several studies have reported and confirmd the effect of graphene G or graphene oxide GO acting as enhanced growth platform as well as osteogenic inducers for bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells MSCs to differentiate towards osteoblasts 1, 3, 4 ...
