Abstract

Editorial: Putting the "Why" Back into Bone "Archytecture".

Highlights

  • Bruker-microCT, Kontich, Belgium Keywords: bone architecture, morphometry, growth and development, mechanotransduction, nonlinear pattern formation, remodelling, coupling, bone biomaterials

  • This topic asked a question – can we do more than merely describe bone architecture, or analyze its mechanical performance? Can we get insights into the pattern forming mechanisms that generate bone’s adaptive architecture? First, I should express gratitude on behalf of myself and co-editors Daniel Chappard and Andy Pitsillides, to the authors who contributed articles

  • In order to clarify the meaning of this topic with its strange title, I contributed an article (Salmon) “Non-linear pattern formation in bone growth and architecture.”
