In vivo performance of a novel polymer (Poly-ε-Caprolactone) composite material

I worked on the project “In vivo performance of a novel polymer (Poly-ε-Caprolactone) composite material” for 18 months. I set up the experimental project with rabbits as the animal model. This polymer was developed at the University of Nottingham, through a 4-year EPSRC project. Due to the poor quality of the re-enforcing absorbable glass fibre material used to make the matrix for the polymer, the pins failed biomechanical testing.
