Hip Labral Reconstruction With a Synthetic Graft: Development and Preclinical Validation
Femoroacetabular impingement plays a prominent role in osteoarthritis pathogenesis. Treating FAI is fundamental, and labral reconstruction is considered the treatment of choice. A synthetic graft ready to be used in the surgical room for labral reconstruction, to best restore hip function, might be the solution.

Dynamic Covalent Polymeric Foams: En Route to a Sustainable Lightness
Dynamic covalent polymer foams (DCPFs) combine lightweight cellular structures with adaptive polymer networks, enabling self‐healing, reprocessability, and recyclability. By integrating reversible covalent bonds into foam architectures, these materials open new pathways toward sustainable porous polymers within a circular materials economy.
