Title TECHNOLOGY MARKET ASSESSMENT AND PATENT LANDSCAPE ANALYSIS FOR A NOVEL TOOL FOR BONE REGENERATION 
Description Through BBSRC-funded and co-funded research, a research team at the University of Glasgow (the 'Client') has achieved extremely promising results for an ultralow-dose growth factor technology ("HealiOst"). The technology yields high bioactivity based on a simple polymer (poly(ethyl acrylate) (PEA))-based material, driving efficient stem cell differentiation and bone regeneration in a critical-sized mouse defect model, with translation to a clinical veterinary setting ongoing. IP Pragmatics Ltd. (IPP) has been commissioned (using Pathfinder funding) by the Client to perform a comprehensive market assessment of the technology 
Type Of Material Technology assay or reagent 
Year Produced 2019 
Provided To Others? No  
Impact The report will inform on future applications and developments towards commercialisation of the technology.
