A large grant is awarded by the Dutch Technology Foundation STW to the project entitled “William Hunter Revisited: Activating intrinsic cartilage repair to restore joint homeostasis” in which ArthoSave participates to study the mechanisms behind intrinsic cartilage repair as seen with joint distraction. ArthroSave, together with the UMC Utrecht and University Utrecht, will specifically focus on early changes in joint tissues as induced by joint distraction.
