Robert O. Becker began by examining why normal bones heal, and then explored the reasons why bones fail to heal properly. In the process he observed several interesting properties of bones and bone growth, proposing that bones are semiconductors and piezoelectric in nature. These tie into the healing process by <u>electrically stimulating bone marrow cells to differentiate into a form of adult stem cells</u> which regrew the bone from within by regeneration.</font>
