The Bonassar Lab is heading to Vegas! 🎲 Excited to present my work on flexible support materials for IVD implants this week at ACTS! #ACTS2024 Weill Cornell CTSC

Many thanks to Bonassar Lab alum and founder of #TeamMeniscus , Dr. Jeff Ballyns, Director of the Center for Regulatory Affairs BD, for a fantastic lecture in BME 5010, describing his journey through academia, the FDA, and industry. It was great to have you back Cornell BME

The Bonassar Lab is seeking undergraduates interested in investigating the effects of growth factor gradients on the meniscus to bone attachment. We are looking for one student to join our team! Check out our lab website if interested:
