Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
The proposed DTC will provide LSI doctoral training with a focus on medical devices, covering a number of interdisciplinary themes in this area to meet real clinical and medical industry user needs. Future developments in medical devices and technology are expected to reflect the convergence of science, engineering and medicine that is evolving from an increasingly multidisciplinary research environment. UK Foresight exercises have identified clear requirements to develop new medical devices and technology. The Medical Devices Faraday Partnership (MDFP) was funded by the DTI, EPSRC and BBSRC in September 2002 to help meet the future requirements in this field. The proposed DTC would work closely with this new Faraday Partnership to develop world -class UK medical device research.
