Bal's a material engineer as a sidenote. His career is in medical. This is why Ashok took it to the other dept. Where's the hips? Go ask Bal. That's squarely in his arena. Zimmer is not a ceramic manufacturer. They rely on Ceramtec. There's people here better suited to go talk to Zimmer. There's people here better suited to go to a ceramic expo.
Last two hires here are a lady from Kohler and a guy getting congratulated by coorstek. Spine was not absorbed by Zimmer an area they want to see market growth in. Not Hip. Zimmer has plenty market in hip. The material engineers are not the problem here. They're doing great. This is what happens when a material engineer tries to make any one in the medical industry not drool on themselves. Last time I checked medical doesn't understand galvanic corrosion, an area forgivable based on their education but you think the effects of metal blood levels would fall under their tent.
Maybe some day medical can get their stuff together.
