Discovery to Product Awards Funds to Seven Campus Startups
Eric G. Schmuck, SCRMC member, research assistant professor and director of research at the Center for Biomedical Swine Research and Innovation, with Cellular Logistics, will evaluate a biomaterial’s potential to reduce post-heart attack damage and restore cardiac function in a swine model. Data from this UW–Madison and Cellular Logistics collaboration is crucial for supporting FDA filings for a first human clinical trial.
