| The Healing Foundation supports projects that address patient
treatment across the broad context of Form, Function and
Feeling. Our research programme is multi-disciplinary and
covers a wide circle of care. Our research goals include; |
| |
 |
| We aim to invest significantly in pioneering research in
this area, in order to develop new treatments
by applying new knowledge in the fields of tissue engineering. |
| |
 |
| We will investigate how, through breakthroughs in science,
tissues and organs can actually be regenerated. |
| |
 |
| We need to identify how stem cells can be manipulated to
form new tissue, blood vessels or even nerves. |
| |
 |
| This will represent the largest investment in the UK to
better understand the processes of psychological adaptation
and recovery. |
| |
 |
| It is vital to identify the information needs of patients
with disfiguring conditions in order to ensure that patients
and families are fully informed about available help
and advice. |
