- This work was supported by a ‘Joint health accelerator grant’ and carried out in collaboration with the University of Manchester, and Manchester Metropolitan University. There is an acute clinical need for small diameter vascular grafts as a treatment option for cardiovascular disease. In this multidisciplinary research work we used an intelligent design system to recreate the natural structure and hemodynamics of small arteries which the technique been developed and used is detailed in a granted patent application No:GB1616064.
