Nanochon

Thanks so much for the shoutout Rijo Walker! It does indeed take a village to lift a medical startup off the ground, but the support that we've received from the entire Plug and Play Sportstech ecosystem has helped Nanochon stride ahead in leaps and bounds. We sincerely appreciate the network and resources that being apart of this program has introduced us to! #Medtech #MedtechInnovation #Orthopedics #AdvancingOrthopedics #SportsMedicine #CartilageRepair #JointCare

That's a wrap! A great week of science, innovation, and collaboration at ICRS - International Cartilage Regeneration & Joint Preservation Society 18th World Congress Joint Revolution 2025! This year’s conference was filled with cutting-edge research and inspiring conversations about the future of cartilage repair and joint preservation. We were proud to share Nanochon’s approach for pre-replacement patients and discuss our path to market including our upcoming first in human study in Canada. Our pre-clinical equine study was presented to an enthusiastic audience by Dr. Charlotte Barton and her team from Colorado State University College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences. Nanochon's cadaveric evaluation of Chondrograft in collaboration with Genesis Innovation Group was also presented in a poster. A big thank you to the ICRS organizers, our fellow innovators, clinicians, and researchers who stopped by our booth and shared their insights. Events like this remind us how powerful collaboration can be in driving meaningful change especially in orthopedic medicine. If you didn’t get a chance to connect with us at the conference, we’d love to have a conversation — reach out or visit our website www.nanochon.com to learn more about our work. #ICRS2025 #CartilageRepair #Orthopedics #MedTech #Innovation #AdvancingOrthopedics #OrthopedicInnovation

"Don't be afraid to take even the smallest calculated risk." - Wise words from Nanochon's co-founder and CTO Nathan Castro during his discussion with Shamil Malachiyev on the #FoundersCode podcast! Nathan leads Nanochon's technical efforts and brings a can-do attitude to the team everyday. He sees every challenge as a new opportunity to learn, and is incredibly skilled at navigating situations to find the most optimal solution. For the past 9 years, Nathan has worked tirelessly through product development and pre-clinical studies, and this persistence has propelled Nanochon to where it is today - at the start line of our first in human clinical trial with Chondrograft. 👀 Check out Nathan's episode below! #cartilagerepair #cartilageregeneration #orthopedics #advancingorthopedics #orthopediccare #sportsmedicine #jointcare

Did you know that women are more than 3x more likely to develop osteoarthritis in their knees than men? Genetics and anatomy play a role. Women's hips being wider than their knees places more strain on the joint, and is the largest contributing factor. However hormone levels, weight and weight distribution, and activity level also strongly impact joint wear and tear. The unfortunate correlation? More women ultimately face invasive knee replacements, a procedure known for long recovery times, pain, and significant impacts on quality of life. Nanochon is striding towards innovations that aim to address damage in the knee before it progresses to advanced joint disease. To the patients: our goal is repairing your active life to keep you healthy, happy and enjoying the activities you love with those whom you love. https://lnkd.in/drDnW2rS #CartilageRepair #CartilageHealth #Orthopedics #AdvancingOrthopedics #OrthopedicCare

The Nanochon team is officially on the ground in Boston for 18th annual ICRS World Congress “Joint Revolution” by ICRS - International Cartilage Regeneration & Joint Preservation Society ! We’re here to connect with physicians, researchers, and innovators about our upcoming clinical milestones and the science behind our patented 3D printed implant, which is designed to act as a scaffold, supporting the growth of healthy cartilage and bone tissue. Chondrograft fits securely into the damaged area of the knee using a simple press-fit procedure and, once in place, stimulates blood and active cells from the bone underneath, supporting the body’s natural healing processes. We've completed a successful equine study and the results are being presented by Dr. Charlotte Barton Monday October 13th at 11:40am EST on the In the Innovation Tank: What is in the pipeline panel. Come find us at booth #30 to discuss our upcoming first in human study and our pathway to advancing orthopedic care. #ICRS #ICRS2025 #CartilageRepair #CartilageRegeneration #Orthopedics #AdvancingOrthopedics #JointCare

It's a pleasure and an honor to introduce our Board of Directors member Dr. Nick Pachuda! Dr. Pachuda brings a trifecta of knowledge to Nanochon, spanning his experiences as an investor at Neovate Capital, an entrepreneur and a leader of J&J's global External Innovation group. He brings voice of physician / voice of patient knowledge to Nanochon, derived from his direct clinical experience as a practicing foot and ankle surgeon, with specialization in orthopedic trauma. Additionally, through advisory and leadership roles, he has helped several companies scale to successful exits, and is a fantastic sounding board for our commercial decision making that will hopefully align Nanochon on a similar trajectory. Nick has also held operating and R&D roles at large multinational companies, and knows the entrepreneurial ropes first hand through his co-founding and scaling of Arthrex's extremities business. We appreciate Dr. Pachuda's support and guidance in helping Nanochon to reach the starting line of our clinical journey, and will continue to lean on the expertise of all of our Board of Directors to accelerate our growth. #orthopedics #advancingorthopedics #medicaldevice #cartilage #cartilagerepair #jointcare #cartilageregeneration
