    • Abstract:
      An interview with Dr. Greg Anderson and Dr, Christopher K. Kepler in the U.S. is presented. Kepler mentions the importance of the anatomy of intervertebral disk (IVD) since its two main components have different biomechanical functions. Anderson stresses the need to understand how the normal anabolic and catabolic processes in the IVD are altered in tissue degradation. Furthermore, Kepler elaborates the cellular senescence which is the time when the cell stops dividing. INSET: Bottom line:.
