Scope

This symposium covers advances in new research directions for biomaterials for biomedical implants. It high- lights how researchers and clinicians are pushing the envelope in disease prevention, detection, and treatment. It covers more traditional areas such as hip, craniofacial, and spinal implants but also pushes us in new directions such as implantable sensors that can potentially determine changes in bone health and then respond to those changes to ensure strong healthy bones. It also emphasizes novel solutions to traditionally difficult tissue repair, such as meniscus repair and other organ tissue regeneration strategies.

Most importantly, highlights the dynamic field of implant biomaterials as it introduces new chemistries to tissue regeneration, such as biodegradable metals and new polymers.
