📣 Help Shape the Future of UKRI's Gateway to Research (GtR)

We're improving UKRI's Gateway to Research and are seeking your input! If you would be interested in being interviewed about the improvements we're making and to have your say about how we can make GtR more user-friendly, impactful, and effective for the Research and Innovation community, please email gateway@ukri.org.

Modeling postnatal skeletal tissue morphogenesis and skeletal stem cell self-renewal

Lead Research Organisation: University of Edinburgh
Department Name: Sch of Biological Sciences

Abstract

Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

Technical Summary

This application is a UK-Canada exchange project relating to regenerative medicine. Regenerative medicine is defined as the branch of medicine that develops methods to regrow, repair or replace damaged or diseased cells, organs or tissues. The purpose of the project is to provide new skills to researchers, including ECRs, technicians and newly independent investigators, and to build links between UK and Canada based scientists for continued or future collaboration. The exchange will support the work being undertaken on the project "Modeling postnatal skeletal tissue morphogenesis and skeletal stem cell self-renewal".
