Description | Discovery of amyloid formation by clotting blood. Absolutely humungous discovery. Novel methods for analysing blood in control and unhealthy individuals. In particular, we discovered that blood clots into an unusual form, known as an amyloid form, and this has huge implications. |
Exploitation Route | Novel diagnostics. |
