SciBridge with DJDJ and JJ Hubert brings the viewer information about how MEMs and Microfluidic systems are brought to life and where we see them everyday. Establishing this connection is extremely important because knowledge has boundaries if it has no applications. Special guest Blue Plaid from 104.9 WJRH stops by to provide his input on designed thinking in a classic example. Listen up if you want to learn where the future is headed!

Project Summary: This podcast will give a brief overview about what micromechanical surgery is, and go in depth into an application of a material studied at a micro level, and then in theory applied at a macro level. The material that we are looking at is a combination of bone and cement. This is used to benefit surgical techniques and processes in total hip replacement surgeries. This podcast includes a summary of the research study, pros and cons, and what advancements need to be made before this can be applied for consumer use.
