Dear CBS Members Colleagues, We are excited to share that four of our Eastern Canada student chapters have organized a 2025 Canadian Biomaterials Society Eastern Canada Student Research Day ...
Surgical adhesives provide a viable alternative to sutures for wound closure. The main advantages of surgical adhesives are excellent cosmetic outcome, reduced infection rate, fast application, and improved prevention of fluid leakage through the wound...
Load bearing connective tissues, such as the intervertebral discs, are susceptible to both age-related degeneration and traumatic damage, but recovery is hindered by their avascular nature1...
Injectable hydrogels that can be delivered using needles offer particular advantages in biomedical applications given that these hydrogels do not require invasive surgical implantation, thereby reducing recovery time for patients, reducing costs, and in many cases enabling direct encapsulation, rather than post-encapsulation, of cells during the gel formation process 1 ...
