Brief description Large skeletal defects resulting from congenital defects or disease processes are challenging to regenerate and represent a major financial burden to our health system. Bone graft treatments are widely used but have considerable drawbacks. Available synthetic alternatives lack the physical-biological properties necessary. We have developed new scaffolds with improved mechanical-biological properties for bone regeneration.
