New Gel-Based Artificial Cartilage Might Eliminate the Need for Total Knee Replacement
Researchers from Duke University have created the first gel-based substitute for natural cartilage, which, according to them, is more durable than the original. The hydrogel material is made of water and absorbing materials, and can effectively resist wear and tear up to three times more than the natural cartilage.

Hydrogel-Based Armour Developed for Worms to Carry Cancer Drugs to Tumours
Scientists have discovered ways to fit worms in hydrogel suits that allow them to carry cancer drugs to tumours. Researchers from Osaka University found that coating nematodes in a hydrogel-based sheath can allow scientists to make the worms carry various kinds of cargo, including cancer drugs that can be directly reach to cancerous cells.
