Scientists figure out how to create mussel glue in the lab. This is cool 3 different ways:
1) We now have some new, waterproof adhesives for marine construction and development.
2) The same glues can be used in surgery
3) It doesn’t work the same way traditional glues & epoxies work.
Give it a read, it’s pretty neat stuff
Just in time for some wetware appliances!
I’m hoping it leads to a new way to get cartilege to stick to bone so I can get my knee fixed.
