2023 Perpetual IMPACT Funding

Start year: 2024

Summary: Heart Research Australia will apply for us to Perpetual to support the purchase of an ex vivo testing system to evaluate the durability of the bioprinted patches under stress (stretching). This has been previously tested in our laboratory (Sept-Oct 2023). Funds will cover also some consumables to use the equipment as well as 5% that Heart Research Australia will keep. I have discussed this with Sarah Angus, who has sought and received the approval to go ahead with this.
