1,5 milion euro funding to make human residual tissue available for research
|
| Research project VitalTissue has been awarded €1.5 million to establish a new infrastructure that will make vital human residual tissue available and usable for health research in the Netherlands. This will allow researchers to use residual tissue that would otherwise be discarded after surgery for their research. In doing so, VitalTissue contributes to results that are more translatable to humans and to the transition to animal-free innovations. |
