human health, launching the use of nanotechnology in musculoskeletal regeneration and ushering in a new era in orthopaedic therapies. He and his colleagues were the first to develop nanofiber technologies for tissue regeneration.[11] He pioneered the development of polymer-ceramic systems for bone regeneration, and inspired technologies on the market for bone repair/regeneration and for bioceramic implants such as interference screws for musculoskeletal repair.

Laurencin has worked in the development of systems for soft tissue regeneration. He invented the Laurencin-Cooper ligament (LC ligament) for ACL regeneration, and engineered grafts for shoulder rotator cuff tendon repair and regeneration. National Geographic named the LC Ligament one of its "100 Scientific Discoveries that Changed the World" in 2012.[12][13]

He is a highly cited researcher and has authored over 500 scientific papers and patents.
