This animation was made by Mighty Grays Studio for the Science on Screen programme, which is a partnership project run by CÚRAM (the SFI Research Centre for Medical Devices at University of Galway) & Ardán. The animation is based on a research project by Prof Yury Rochev, Masroora Hassan and Dr Giriprasath Ramanathan. The project outlines how researchers at CÚRAM are aiming to create new and improved bio adhesive materials for tissue repair or delivery of medicines, taking inspiration from nature. The hydrogels being developed can be used in a medical setting and can have a wider application than existing bio adhesives, be simpler to use and more effective for wound healing and in patients post-surgery.
The animations are the product of a new strand of CÚRAM and Ardan’s Science on Screen scheme which were launched in 2022 in association with the National Talent Academy Animation (NTAA).
