Dear Friend,
Welcome back to our most recent newsletter. We have some important
updates for you, and an overview of the best parts of February.
What’s
Happened Since Last Time
- We are continuing to coordinate with the ethics committee and
their road-map in preparation for animal trials. More importantly, we
have located a scientist in Italy with the experience who could
collaborate with us on an animal trial and conduct the required
experiments.
- We are also continuing our conversations with contacts that have
expressed interest in helping us through the process of finding
financial backing. At this time we can’t release more information,
but we will keep you informed as we are able to.
- Our Chief Science Officer, Eric Cunningham, is leveraging his
background in Biomedical and Chemical Engineering and is writing a
piece detailing the Bioethical issues involving circumcision and the
use of neonatal tissue in Biotechnology, Biomedical research, and
Cosmetics industries.
- As part of our continued efforts to expand our geographic scope,
our contacts with the Swiss trade agency have been helping us conduct
a facility search to find a location that will fit our future research
needs going forward.
- For the month of February we saw 226 new supporters sign up and
reached a total of $7,654 in donations, which helps us move forward
with the next parts of our mission! Be sure to inform other
activists, friends and family about Foregen and the science we’re
pursuing to one day help provide genital integrity to men around the
world. Our overall total to date is $573,671.83 Let’s
keep it up.
Tell Me
Something Interesting
- In this
article, “New Jersey-based Rutgers University engineers have
developed their version of bio-ink, which is made of living cells and
used to 3D print scaffolds for human tissue growth. [...] According to
the study, what sets this bio-ink apart from others is the ability to
precisely control its properties using mixing techniques. A major
accomplishment in the study was the successful customization of the
shapes of the produced scaffolds.”
Thanks for reading, and stay tuned for our next newsletter. If
