FOREGEN NEWSLETTER JULY 1, 2020
We are thrilled to announce the inclusion of a new scientist to our research team: Dr. Angela Palumbo Piccionello. Dr. Palumbo Piccionello will be working with our current scientists and coordinating the next phase of our research: Phase II Animal Trials. She is a Professor of Surgery and Anesthesiology at the University of Camerino's School of Biosciences and Veterinary Medicine. From 2011 to 2017 she served as President of the Italian Society of Veterinary Traumatology and Orthopedics, and she holds both a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree as well as a Ph.D. in Animal Orthopedics. Foregen's scientific research relies heavily on mechanical analysis of tissue; Dr. Palumbo Piccionello's specialization in orthopedics offers a high level of biomechanical expertise which bodes extremely well for Foregen's needs.
Foregen experienced a setback in 2019 due to tissue acquisition delays, and as many of you know, COVID-19 recently stopped all operations in Italy for several months. However, we have been back at work and are making all of the necessary preparations to begin the next phase of animal trials. We are additionally very happy to announce that this phase is being partially funded by both the University of Camerino and the Marche Region of Italy, providing a combined EUR 44,000 (Approx. USD 50,000) in research grants.
