Making cancer treatment more effective
Together with 11 partners, the Innovation Platform is involved in a project aiming to improve cancer diagnostics and drug development. The project is intended to take a unique method developed at Sahlgrenska University Hospital onwards to clinical trials and industrial application.
The Innovation Platform is responsible for project coordination and resource planning. The purpose is to use bioprinting to enable cell structures to be used for diagnosis, pharmaceuticals development and cancer treatment. Another purpose is to reduce the number of studies on animals. The bioprinted models strive to imitate human structures, and that means that animals will not be necessarily have to be used in future research projects, says Maria Holmén, project manager at the Innovation Platform, when interview by Clinical Studies Sweden.
