"Novel Piezoelectric Bandage Accelerates Bone Healing"

Researchers at KAIST have developed a pioneering "bone bandage" that combines piezoelectric materials and hydroxyapatite to regenerate damaged bones in mice, offering potential for human bone regeneration. The bandage generates electrical signals when pressure is applied, leveraging the known role of piezoelectric materials in bone repair and taking the concept to a new level with the integration of hydroxyapatite.
