    Abstract:

Applications: Orthopaedic screws are used to facilitate a fracture fixation of a bone. Such orthopaedic screws are generally meant to provide attachment of complete bone to the bone until healing and integration of the fractured bone. In one example, femur and tibia, which contribute as the largest bones in a human body, when fractured, are treated using fixation of plates with the orthopedic screws. Application: Facilitate fracture fixation such as in femur and tibia
Advantages: 1) orthopedic screw of the present technology facilitates easy recovery with minimal procedure. 2)Do not cut the bone tissues during insertion in the bone and thus reduces inflammation to the bone tissues. 3) Avoid puncture through the bone of the patient having the orthopedic screws inserted, when the patient accidently encounters a fall. 4) Softer threads of the orthopedic screws provide a soothing effect and do not irritate tissues surrounding the bone. 5) Upon healing of the bone from fracture, the removal of the orthopedic screw of the present subject matter causes less or no blood-loss

THE VISION
THE MISSION
ABOUT I-STEM
It has always been the basic tenet of the Government of India, in generously funding R&D efforts at academic institutions over the years, that facilities established through such support be made available to those needing them and qualified to make use of them for their own research work

However, this was never easy or straightforward for, among other reasons, there was no ready source of information of what facility was available and where. Thanks to the Web, it is much easier today to have a national and regional “inventory of resources”, so as to match users with the resources they need, and to do all this in an efficient and transparent manner.

This can lead to a leap in R&D productivity and greatly enhance the effectiveness of public investment. This is the motivation behind I-STEM.
