This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. David presents us solutions for bone regeneration. Science is now able to regenerate human bones, so no implants are needed.

As an actual member of the BBT research group in the Technical University of Barcelona (UPC), David focuses his research on advanced biomaterials for bone regeneration. The shift from using materials to fill defects towards a multidisciplinary design of temporal scaffolds mimicking the body is the leading line of his PhD. Originally graduated in Materials. 
David is also co-founder and leader of a start-up company, Subtilis Biomaterials whose objective is the design and commercialization of innovative, cost-effective bone grafting solutions emerging from the BBT group (UPC Barcelona).

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
