Bone Growing Technology-New Advances. The Science Squad
Description
A team of researchers at The Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland have developed a new organic material that harnesses the body's own regenerative power to repair damaged bones and cartilage. Visit the training ground of a horse treated with HydroxyColl to see first-hand how this treatment could transform the racing industry by reducing the need for horses to be put down. This program also explores how athletes might be able to benefit from this type of treatment. (8 minutes)
