N2 - Developments in several fields, including molecular and stemcell biology, biomaterials, biomechanics, and molecular genetics, have all contributed to advancements in orthopaedic research this past year. Improvements and refinements in laboratory techniques have hastened the pace of progress in research. The primary challenge for the clinician is to stay abreast of advances in areas related to the biology and biomechanics of musculoskeletal tissues. In this review, we have attempted to highlight advances that have the most potential for early translation to clinical practice in the areas of tendon biology, spinal disc degeneration and regeneration, meniscus repair and regeneration, and cartilage degeneration and repair.
