Hear Dr Flávia Medeiros Savi talk about her research on Reconstructive Surgery and Regenerative Medicine in our latest Impact Story video.
Our current research focuses on the in vivo characterisation and evaluation of 3D printed scaffolds applied to the reconstruction of large segmental bone defects in pre-clinical large animal models. This area of study holds huge potential for advancing regenerative medicine, eventually helping patients with complex bone reconstruction needs.
Dr Flávia Medeiros Savi and Distinguished Prof Dietmar W Hutmacher’s collaboration with orthopaedic and plastic surgeons Dr Michael Schuetz and Dr Michael Wagels further enhances the credibility and applicability of our findings.
