What if bone could heal itself?

For children born with cleft lip and palate, repairing gaps in the jawbone can mean waiting until around 10 - 12 years old for invasive bone graft surgery - a procedure that has changed little in over 50 years.

Lead researcher Associate Professor Chun Xu has helped to develop a biodegradable ‘nanobone’ material that helps activate the body’s own natural healing signals, attracting bone-forming stem cells and stimulating new bone growth.

New research has found young people with chronic illness were often told their symptoms were part of growing up, when the reality was a serious underlying condition requiring medical attention.

Lead researcher Dr Imogen Harper from the Sydney Centre for Healthy Societies says the research highlights how deeply held assumptions about youth can prevent young people from receiving appropriate care.
