Hala Zreiqat

Hala Zreiqat has made significant contributions to biomaterials, regenerative medicine, and translational orthopaedic research. She introduced advanced cell, molecular biology and nanoscience approaches to the biomaterials field. Her team invented new bioceramics with outstanding strength and biological properties for the regeneration of large bone defects. She has developed innovative technologies for 3D-printing these ceramics, enabling carefully controlled fabrication of complex structures with precisely defined shape, porosity, architecture and surface topography. These achievements are leading to the development of novel orthopaedic implants, including the world’s first synthetic material for healing large bone defects under load, enabling personalised approaches to the repair and regeneration of musculoskeletal tissues.
