Some better news for a soggy Monday....
Canterbury Scientific, in partnership with the University of Canterbury’s Biomolecular Interaction Centre, is set to receive nearly $1 million in funding from the Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment. The investment is one of 31 projects selected under the 2012 High-Value Manufacturing and Services Research Fund announced recently by Minister Steven Joyce and will enable research into tests for the secondary complications of diabetes.
The Diagnostic Markers for Diabetic Complications research project is expected to lead to the development of new commercial tests to identify patients at high risk of diabetic complications such as heart disease, visual impairment, diabetic neuropathy and kidney disease.
