Research Grant

Researchers: Prof Michael Roberts (Principal investigator) ,  Prof Colin Pouton ,  Prof Darrell Crawford ,  Prof Zhiping Xu

Brief description This project focuses on the challenging area of effective and optimal dosing cell-based therapy for liver diseases. We will investigate the fate and therapeutic effects of natural, modified and artificial therapeutic cells in the body and in liver regions using a physiologically-based kinetic model. Our key goal is advance cell therapy by providing a better understanding and dosing guidelines.
