bear of little brain (Birthday bear of little brain...hurrah ) needs a little help
A couple of years there was a very interesting surgical research piece on replacing joints
"Surgeons say they have successfully grown new finger and toe joints in people with rheumatoid arthritis. They say the technique can reverse the damage caused by the disease, restoring movement and eliminating pain. Surgeons at Tampere University of Technology in Finland say it could become widely available within a year"
bbc coverage here
am struggling to find out how this work has progressed (whether it has) .. can you advise me on how I would find out more (especially availability in UK)?
- if you're reading and can't help, could you bump it for me please
