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...
Ureteral stents are extensively used in patients with obstructive urologic disorder to maintain a ureteral opening thus optimizing the flow of urine1...
The human mucus layer plays an important role in host defense. In areas such as the airway and gastrointestinal GI tract, the mucus lining acts as a physical barrier to pathogens while providing a microenvironment for commensal bacteria 1 ...
In past decades, different research groups found a relationship between tear glucose and blood glucose, concluding that hyperglycemia could be detected by measuring tear glucose concentrations 1-3 ...
The development of biomaterials and engineered tissues are reshaping the future of medicine. Soft and injectable materials are increasingly used to treat pathologies, release drugs and or seed cells for tissue engineering...
We present a nano-spray therapy for on-the spot-repair of a heart attack. Our sprayable therapy uses nano-engineered peptide-based materials, where nanomolar concentrations of surface engineered spherical nanogold are used to coat the surface of the cardiac muscle...
