Video of the week - Jain on biomed applications of glass
Lehigh University professor Himanshu Jain discusses the school’s work to lead an international effort to develop biocompatible, dually porous glass that helps damaged human bone to regenerate. Jain, who teaches in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, was the subject of another post we did about a week ago concerning a project to encourage more African-Americans to adopt science and engineering careers.
Great stuff! I can imagine a future where many bone diseases are helped with the use of glass materials.
