MUSCULOSKELETAL REPAIR AND REGENERATION

Explore cutting-edge biomaterials, nanotech, AI, and CRISPR in this essential guide to musculoskeletal repair, regeneration, and orthopedic innovation.

A key focus is to advance future discovery through highlighting recent technologies, tools, and techniques, while also presenting current gaps in knowledge. The reader is guided through contemporary insights into the musculoskeletal disease burden, and the common disorders that affect the patient in its early chapters to the plausible use of CRISPR technology to combat disease in its latter section. This path includes the following themes: molecular targets, systemic applications, scaffolds, grafts, and coatings, smart biomaterials, 3D printing, nanotechnology, robotic-assisted surgery and artificial intelligence, and testing and assessment models of musculoskeletal disease.

This is an ideal book for physicians, surgeons, research scientists, medical and allied health students, and university students.
