Thanks to biomaterials research, we can increasingly replace or supplement ailing parts of our bodies. Replacing the cornea of the eye and curing blindness sounds like the ultimate miracle. But Ayan Samanta is one of the researchers on the trail of a solution: natural collagen that can repair and regenerate the cornea, and even reinforce orthopaedic implants. Welcome to UppTalk!
