Ozhukil Kollath, who are collaborating on a project focusing on electrophoretic deposition of bioactive coatings also with Prof. R. Cloots, University of Liege in Belgium. The collaboration with our Institute will include the optimization of the EPD technique to deposit soft polymer-inorganic filler coatings for orthopaedic applications.
