In vitro technology bids for prestigious Innovation 10 prize

Kirkstall, an innovative Sheffield company, has launched a video in support of their bid to win a prestigious Technology Strategy Board prize. Their technology enables different human cell types to be grown in an interconnected way, using a microfluidic flow system. This ‘quasi vivo’ system more accurately reflects the way in which cells grow in the body, and hence provides more relevant results. We are delighted that Managing Director Dr Malcolm Wilkinson praised our campaign for safer medicines during the course of his video, and wish Kirkstall the best of luck! Winning the £100k prize would enable Kirkstall to develop their technology even further. Please view and rate their entry here (or here).
