IMPRESS - Compliant meshes for pelvic organ prolapse

Start date: 30 June 2014
End date: 21 December 2018
Primary investigator: Professor Peter Culmer
External co-investigators: Dr Elena Mancuso

This research project is undertaken as part of the IMPRESS Research Fellowship position, held by Dr Elena Mancuso. It has been developed through close collaboration with textiles experts at Leeds University and aims to design and construct a three dimensional (3D) membrane, via a needless electrospinning technique, as a potential platform for the repair and regeneration of the human pelvic floor.
