- Additional information
- First full biomechanical characterisation of our new patented acellular scaffold for ligament repair, funded by an ERC Advanced Grant (Ref. 267114). Licensed to Tissue Regenix and developed into a new product that has completed clinical trial. This is now progressing to CE mark, prior to product launch on the global market. This research, technology and collaboration supported the renewal of the £4M EPSRC Medical Technologies IKC in Regenerative Devices phase 2 (EP/N00941X/1).
