Summary
This study aims to create a realistic 3D-printed model of a spinal disc using human cells. Researchers will compare the genes of cells from real discs to those grown in the lab model to see how well it mimics the real thing. The goal is to develop a better tool for studying degenerative disc disease without needing to involve patients directly. The study involves 5 adults aged 30-70 who are already scheduled for spine surgery.
