When a bone break is too severe to heal on its own, surgeons often rely on grafts or rigid metal implants \u2014 but both come with serious drawbacks. Now, researchers at ETH Zurich have created a jelly-like hydrogel that mimics the body\u2019s natural healing process, offering a potentially game-changing alternative. Made of 97% water, this soft material can be laser-printed into intricate bone-like structures at record-breaking speeds, down to details thinner than a human hair.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
