title: Bioinspired fabrication of 3D hierarchical porous nanomicrostructures of calcium carbonate for bone regeneration.
abstract: Hierarchical calcium carbonate structures with multi-scale organization have been successfully fabricated covering the full range of pore sizes from nano-, to micro- to macrofeatures. The resulting 3D scaffolds, with a close resemblance to bone structures, have been evaluated in vitro and in vivo and showed great potential for bone regeneration.
