Biography

Dr. DANIEL BOYD is affiliated to  School of Biomedical Engineering, Dalhousie University. Dr. DANIEL BOYD is currently providing services as Associate Professor,. Dr. DANIEL BOYD has authored I145and co-authored multiple peer-reviewed scientific papers and presented works at many national and International conferences. Dr. DANIEL BOYD contributions have acclaimed recognition from honourable subject experts around the world. Dr. DANIEL BOYD is actively associated with different societies and academies. Dr. DANIEL BOYD academic career is decorated with several reputed awards and funding. Dr. DANIEL BOYD research interests include Our research interests are focused on the development of glass based biomaterials for clinical indications in areas of trauma, oncology, neurovascular interventions and hard tissue augmentation. To achieve these solutions we actively research within the test parameters of internationally recognized protocols to evaluate new biomaterials in terms of safety and efficacy. In particular, emphasis is paid to composition-structure-property relationships of phosphate-free materials via the evaluation of mechanical properties (including fatigue performance of materials), in vitro evaluation of biological performance, as well as in vivo safety and efficacy. The research efforts of our laboratory are driven by clinical requirements and are conducted on an international basis with collaborators in the US, UK, and in the Republic of Ireland..
