Description This award established an interdisciplinary collaboration to introduce the role of maths modelling to regenerative medicine scientists. The project has been very successful resulting in a state of the art review, workshops with other members of the community, new funding to carry out our ideas, publications, and PhD joint students still carrying on with their research.
Exploitation Route The award has led to many new initiatives, funded programmes between our team and others. The concepts are now being embedded into research programmes in regenerative medicine going forward.
