BoneFix welcomes veterinarian Nanett Kvist to the team! Read more about Nanett and her research on bonefix.org/post/welcome-t… #BoneFix #H2020 #research #implants #fracturefixation

As part of BoneFix’s continued evaluation of adaptable light-cured implants for bone fixation, the surgeons from Region Hovedstaden decided to investigate the novel concept from a usability perspective. Read more at: bonefix.org/post/novel-lig… #h2020 #bonefix #orthopedics

Professors Kamal Mustafa from @UiB and Michael Malkoch from @KTHuniversity and their teams met last week at KTH to discuss current and future collaborations in the field of tissue engineering. Read more at bonefix.org/post/uib-team-… #H2020 #bonefix #tissueengineering

In August the BoneFix project performed novel biomechanical tests developed at AO Research Institute Davos to better understand the forces an implant needs to withstand during fracture healing. Read more at: bonefix.org/post/the-bonef… #h2020 #bonefix #biomechanics #orthopedics

Are you interested in conducting advanced materials research on future metal-free implants for patient-specific treatments of complex bone fractures? If yes, then i am happy to announce a postdoc vacancy is now available in my research group on this topic! kth.se/en/om/work-at-…

The BoneFix consortium met up in the beautiful city of Bergen, Norway for our second in-person annual meeting, hosted by Kamal Mustafa and his team of researchers at the Department of Clinical Dentistry, University of Bergen @UiB Read more: bonefix.org/post/the-bonef… #eic #h2020

The BoneFix project includes development stages all the way from chemical synthesis to preclinical prototypes. At @MINES_StEtienne initial safety screening is conducted on the developed components. Read more about their work at: bonefix.org/post/researche… #bonefix #horizon2020

During the last 6 months, researchers from AO Research Institue and surgeons from Region Hovedstaden have established advanced biomechanical testing procedures for the BoneFix concept. Read more about their work: bonefix.org/post/bonefix-i… #bonefix #horizon2020 #biomechanics

Great work Bergen!

@MustafaGroupUiB is taking the next step in the development of future hydrogel bone scaffolds included in the BoneFix concept for personalised bone restoration. Read more at bonefix.org/post/hydrogel-… #bonefix #boneregeneration #horizon2020 #research #implants

Great to have you on the BoneFix team Lena!

In BoneFix, European researchers have joined forces to develop future innovations for bone healing. Watch our new video at bonefix.org and be inspired by the possible outcomes from this exciting project! #Horizon2020 #boneimplants #bonefix

Get to know the University of Bergen's PhD student Francesco Torelli who is developing the bone scaffold domain in BoneFix by reading the new team profile at bonefix.org/post/introduci…

Our latest team member profile is up on bonefix-org. This week we look at MINES Post-doc Lea Dejob, who is designing a new biodegradable fiber membrane for use in the BoneFix fixation patch. bonefix.org/post/introduci…

When we asked a student to make acetonide protected bis-MPA on a LARGE scale this is not what we had in mind! Seriously though, hats off to this humble little molecule, which is the first step towards synthesizing ground-breaking dendritic materials.

Our new study in JACS describes an antibiotic-free wound dressing material for treating multidrug-resistant bacteria. The dressing is based on cationic dendritic hydrogels, which also induce advantageous immunomodulatory effects in human keratinocytes. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…
