Previous Awardees- Shatil Grant Winners
Two proposals won the first round of Shatil grants awarded by HSPRC:
- Prof. Shulamit Levenberg of the Faculty of Biomedical Engineering and Prof. Shenhav Shemer of the Faculty of Biology, for their research on “Evaluating physiological impacts of photo-crosslinked bioinks for cultivated meat.”
- Prof. Roy Posmanik of the Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Prof. Havazelet Bianco-Peled of the Wolfson Faculty of Chemical Engineering, for their research on “New approaches to transform plant-based agriculture waste into protein hydrogels.
Previous Awardees - New Equipment
Winner of New Equipment Grant
Prof. Shulamit Levenberg of the Faculty of Biomedical Engineering submitted the winning proposal for acquiring new equipment. HSPRC will therefore purchase a Readily3D Volumetric Bioprinter – Tomolite VBP. The Tomolite system utilizes tomographic light projections to enable ultra-fast, support-free 3D bioprinting. Entire 3D structures are formed within seconds in cell-free or cell-laden light-sensitive hydrogels, with high cell viability and spatial resolution. The Readily3D volumetric bioprinter provides a transformative technology for cultivated meat research, enabling the rapid fabrication of complex tissue constructs.
Researchers have the opportunity to apply to HSPRC for funding to support and boost their work in the field of sustainable protein research. The following Calls for Proposals to Technion researchers interested in obtaining HSPRC grants are closed.
