Dear Friend,
Welcome back to our most recent
newsletter. We have some important updates for you, and an overview of
the best parts of October.
What’s
Happened Since Last Time
- We will
be attending BIO-EUROPE in Hamburg, Germany this November 11th - 13th,
where we’ve been invited for talks with several international
organizations. Our goal at BIO-EUROPE is to further our connections,
follow up with previous contacts which we’ll meet, and explore more of
Europe’s technology sector while marketing ourselves to prospective
global partners.
- We’ve
been in discussions with numerous trade agencies in Europe who are
showing increased interest in our project and potential for
development. As a part of these discussions, our President Vincenzo
Aiello and lead scientist Dr. Elena Bondioli have finished producing
the documentation necessary to move forward with finalizing a funding
source.
- As part
of our search for a tissue supplier in Colombia, our South American
legal firm has communicated to us that they are finishing their study
and will send us a report on key questions that need to be answered by
the local authorities.
- Our
tissue supplier has informed us that 15 tissues have been shipped on
October 28th and will be delivered to our lab in Italy.
-
The AMA we held on October 6th was
very successful - many of you stopped by and contributed your
questions. If you’re interested in reading through them you can check
out the AMA at this link.
-
We are continuing to pursue several
research opportunities in relation to Phase III of our roadmap, and function as complementary components. As such, we are in
the exploratory stages of acquiring the resources to conduct a
histological study of the foreskin with modern techniques, as well as
other important potential research opportunities. Tissue priority will
be applied to Phase II animal trials.
- Over the
past month Foregen also had over 180 new supporters sign up on our
site expressing interest in the project.
-
For the month of October reached a
total of $10,993 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 $520,405 Let’s keep it up.
Tell Me
Something Interesting
-
This piece discusses how “Scientists at Tomsk
Polytechnic University jointly with the University of Montana (USA)
proposed a promising new material for regenerative medicine for
recovery of damaged tissues and blood vessels. This is a 3-D scaffold,
made of biodegradable material and filled with special inhibitors,
which were also obtained at TPU. They literally turn off the work of
enzymes, responsible for the inflammation reaction, occurring in
immune cells in response to external stimuli. In this case, such an
irritant is a regenerative material.”
