Description

You will learn how scientific (bench-top) research ideas are translated into medical products that will benefit patients. You will learn about how research and medical product development is funded at different stages of translation, about intellectual property, medical device/advanced therapeutics regulation and the commercial considerations for successful translation. Understanding these commercial pathways are vital for encouraging a translational approach to research and this is particularly important in emerging technologies such as regenerative medicine and nanomedicines.

An entrepreneurial spirit will be encouraged through group work and assessment where students will develop their own business plan within the fields of nanomedicine, regenerative medicine and improved medical devices.
