My research in November:

During the second month of my PhD studies at the Institute of Metallurgy and Material Polish Academy of Sciences I paid attention on preparation of a lecture about “Bioactive glass/poly(L-lactide-co-glycolide) composite scaffolds for bone tissue engineering”. In the second part of the presentation I gave the introduction into biodegradable magnesium alloys. In November I also have made and literature studies connected with biodegradation of magnesium alloys. Together with my supervisor, we have choosen the probable candidate for our research: Mg-Zn-Ca (3-5 wt% Zn, 0.5-1.5 wt% Ca).

Between 14th and 18th of November I participated in “PhD School on nanoanalysis using finely focused ion and electron beams” in Gabriel Lippmann Center in Luxemburg.
