Biomaterials in Orthopaedics & Trauma

Dr. Prof. Raju Vaishya is a distinguished orthopedic surgeon and joint replacement specialist with over 38 years of experience and is recognized as one of the leading figures in India.  Dr. Vaishya's impressive educational background includes an MBBS degree (Gold Medalist), MS (Orth), MCh (Orth), FRCS (London), and FACS (USA). He actively contributes to the academic sphere, holding positions like member of the Specialist Board for Orthopedics and Distinguished Clinical Tutor at Apollo Hospitals Educational and Research Foundation. Dr. Vaishya's illustrious career is marked by numerous accolades. He holds several prestigious awards, including the Dr. B.C. Roy Award and recognitions for academic excellence. He has achieved world records (documented in Limca and India Book of Records) for performing bilateral total knee replacements on the oldest patients (individuals and couples). Additionally, he has been featured in the Asia Book of Records for his prolific research output during the COVID-19 pandemic.Dr Sourabh Ghosh is a Professor at Department of Textile and Fibre Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, India. He is the head of Regenerative Engineering laboratory. His research focuses on the interface between fundamental and applied research, by combining the principles of Textile Technology and Tissue Engineering, using silk and collagen proteins, bioprinting and establishment of in vitro disease models. His research elucidated that the role of type of cell utilized (chondrocytes or stem cells), the chondrogenic culture conditions (growth factors/biochemical mediators) and the culture microenvironment during chondrogenesis have a direct correlation with the dysregulated activity of the chondrogenic signaling pathways corroborating the onset of hypertrophic maturation of chondrocytes.
