Australians' life expectancies are among the highest in the world. Degeneration of load bearing bones in the elderly of age 65 and over often requires the inception of biomaterial implants. For the hip and knee replacements alone, there are over 52,000 operations performed in Australia each year at an estimated cost of over $500 million. The success of these procedures depends on the implant biomaterials. The outcomes of this project are a new category of porous bone implant materials for load bearing applications.

澳大利亚人的预期寿命是世界上最高的。65岁及以上老年人的承重骨退化通常需要生物材料植入物。仅髋关节和膝关节置换手术，澳大利亚每年就有52，000多例手术，估计费用超过5亿澳元。这些手术的成功取决于植入生物材料。该项目的成果是一种新型多孔骨植入材料，用于承重应用。
