Kolken, H.M.A. (author), Callens, S.J.P. (author), Leeflang, M.A. (author), Mirzaali, Mohammad J. (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author)The rational design of bone-substituting biomaterials is relatively complex because they should meet a long list of requirements for optimal performance. Meta-biomaterials are micro-architected materials that hold great promise for meeting those requirements as they offer a unique combination of mechanical, mass-transport, and biological...journal article 2022

Kolken, H.M.A. (author), Janbaz, S. (author), Leeflang, M.A. (author), Lietaert, K. (author), Weinans, Harrie (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author)Rationally designed meta-biomaterials present unprecedented combinations of mechanical, mass transport, and biological properties favorable for tissue regeneration. Here we introduce hybrid meta-biomaterials with rationally-distributed values of negative (auxetic) and positive Poisson’s ratios, and use them to design meta-implants that unlike...journal article 2018
