New Supplemental Grant from the National Science Foundation
Medcura is the recipient of a supplemental grant to our current SBIR Phase II Award from the National Science Foundation for $100,000. The award, called Small-Business / ERC (Engineering Reserach Center) Collaborative Opportunity (SECO), will go towards evaluating the safety of our chitosan-based foam in internal surgical applications. The Company will collaborate with Dr. Steven Stice who works at the Regenerative Engineering and Medicine Research Center, University of Georgia, where the studies will be conducted. This is an exciting development for our internal surgical research program.
