"Mimicking the structure of calcified tissues and addressing the limitations of the individual materials, development of organic-inorganic hybrid biomaterials provides excellent possibilities for improving conventional bone implants. Suitable biocomposites of tailored physical, biological, and mechanical properties with the predictable degradation behavior can be prepared combining biologically relevant CaPO4 with bioresorbable polymers. This work presents a brief history and advances in the field of CaPO4/ /polymer biocomposites and hybrid biomaterials suitable for biomedical application"--
