Bioengineering Joints

What happens when an engineer gets to look into the musculoskeletal system? How would an engineer or a material scientist use their expertise to optimise the performance of our bones, joints and soft tissues? Consultant orthopaedic surgeon Dr Rajesh Singh walks us through how different scientific disciplines come together to give us advances like joint replacements, which many of us take for granted today.
