The Faculty of Medicine is pleased to announce the successful applicants of the 2024 Path to Patenting & Pre-commercialization (3P) Grant competition. The Path to Patenting & Pre-commercialization grant program helps move early-stage biomedical research from the lab toward real-world applications by supporting proof-of-concept studies and commercialization efforts. It provides funding for key experiments, intellectual property protection, market assessments, and business development to help researchers bring their innovations to market.
