 Metal scaffolds made from biodegradable materials offer great promise for use in hard tissue regeneration due to their excellent mechanical properties and ability to degrade over time. Computational methods can be used to optimize the porosity of these scaffolds, allowing them to closely match the mechanical properties of human bones while still being able to degrade in the body.
