Integra Lifesciences Holdings Corp
A maker of surgical and medical devices used by neurosurgeons, reconstructive surgeons, and general surgeons. Its best-known product is the Integra Dermal Regeneration Template, a bioengineered "artificial skin" scaffold that helps severe burn victims grow new skin. The company was founded in 1989 by Dr. Richard Caruso, who licensed the collagen-scaffold technology developed at MIT and Harvard. Its name reflects the product's purpose: the matrix integrates with the patient's own body to regenerate tissue.
