We're excited to invite you to the official launch of the Biomanufacturing Incubator followed by a networking reception.

The Biomanufacturing Incubator is a multidisciplinary initiative designed to harness the collective resources of Sydney’s research institutes. The incubator focuses on biomanufacturing, integrating advanced biomaterials and 3D bioprinting to create tissue analogues that better mimic natural tissue for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. It aims to develop innovative biomanufacturing solutions, serving as the conduit between bioengineers, cell biologists, and clinicians.

The project is led by Professor Steven Wise, cardiovascular bioengineering researcher and a National Heart Foundation Future Leader Fellow, and Associate Professor Khoon Lim, biofabrication researcher and Australian Research Council Future Fellow.
