Our biomimetic approach following the design of python teeth helps to reattach tendons to bone more securely. The device not only augments the strength of the repair but can also be customized to ...

Columbia University researchers have developed a python-tooth-inspired device as a supplement to current rotator cuff suture repair, and found that it nearly doubled repair strength. Their ...

A device inspired by the unique teeth of a python may enhance rotator cuff surgery outcomes by improving repair strength and reducing the risk of a retear, according to a study recently published in ...

Now, a group led by Stavros Thomopoulos, PhD, of Columbia University in New York City, has developed 3D printed devices modeled after python teeth to strengthen tendon-bone attachment beyond that ...

Scientists have unlocked the mystery of how Burmese pythons digest bones without leaving any trace in their droppings. The ...

Two Australian children were brushing their teeth and getting ready for bed Monday when they were confronted by a 5-foot long python in their bathroom. The snake had slithered its way into their ...
