Projects for Thesis
Supervision:
1.
Study of the nano hardness and nano stiffness of bone after long-term
bisphosphonate exposure.
2. Studies of the efficacy of
bone graft substitute materials for defect/gap healing and bone growth
into porous implants.
3. Characterization of the bone
ingrowth characteristics of novel porous biomaterials.
