Innovate UK: Innovation Scholars Secondments

Following the introduction of the Innovation Secondment Scholars Scheme by Innovate UK, Vesynta is proud to host two talented individuals; Philip Berry (Newcastle University) and Anand Pallipurath (University College London), as long-term secondees. The scheme promotes knowledge exchange between industry and research environments, skills development in future leaders and resolution of translational challenges, all towards the benefit of the biomedical sector and wider UK economy. 

Anand’s skills in microfluidic engineering and advanced computational image analysis are leveraged to support Vesynta’s efforts to personalise breast cancer therapy. Phil’s experience of managing a national drug monitoring facility is essential to his enhancement of user experience, interface and analytical performance of Vesynta hardware and software. Collectively, the secondments shall provide value to the individual, academic, commercial and healthcare stakeholders in equal measure.

EPSRC Impact Accelerator Account Discovery to Use Award

Vesynta is an active industrial partner to University College London as part of the EPSRC Impact Accelerator Account Discovery to Use Award. The project focuses on the analytical validation of in-vitro diagnostic device components, in collaboration with researchers Yann Mamie and Toby de Mendonca. Attention is paid to developing monitoring techniques towards oncology co-therapies and polytherapy cancer regimes. A key outcome is the increased accessibility to the virtues of point-of-care blood monitoring for a wider range of patients, cancers and drugs.
