A team of cardiologists at a leading London-based hospital wishes to develop a novel stent device for use in congenital heart disease and interventional radiology. The device would function in a similar way to stents currently available but would differ in its longevity and long-term mechanism of action. The team has extensive expertise in cardiovascular medical device development and is in a position to thoroughly test the device in dedicated inhouse research and development facilities. Funding has already been secured for the animal studies once the device is produced.
