Biodegradable polymers can be safely used as implants (e.g., bone screws, spinal cage, dental/tissue uses, etc.)
Join us for an enlightening presentation on “Biodegradable Polymers: Safe Use of Implants in Bone Screws, Spinal Cages and Beyond”. Discover how advanced biodegradable polymers are revolutionising medical implants with applications ranging from bone screws to dental and tissue applications. Learn about the safety and efficacy of these innovative materials in reducing long-term complications and improving patient outcomes. Open to all, this session will provide key insights into the future of sustainable and biocompatible medical technologies. Don’t miss this opportunity to explore how these cutting-edge solutions are shaping the future of healthcare!

Bio: Huanming joined the University of Oxford as Postdoctoral Researcher in Solid Mechanics and Materials Engineering Group in 2022.
