While there are a large number of such devices, Zoltan is specifically interested in hip and knee implants. Tune in to learn about efforts to minimize the deleterious effects of device breakdown inside the human body. Zoltan, Garth, and Mark also discuss science communication and the benefits of being involved in the graduate student community. To learn more about Zoltan's supervisor: Dr. Yolanda Hedberg and her lab.
