In the last two decades, the AO Research Institute Davos (ARI) has become a multidisciplinary group focusing on a holistic approach of the repair of traumatic and degenerative injuries, notably combining specialist knowledge in Biomaterials and processing technologies (e.g. biofabrication). To illustrate the translational and exploratory Biomaterials research performed at the ARI, the development and assessment in a large preclinical model of a 3D printed bioactive patient-specific implant, and innovative technologies for the fabrications of cellularised 3-Dimensional constructs, will be reported.
