We’re excited to share this month’s progress and updates with you:
Preclinical Research Progress
Our Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Stanislav Žiaran, and Chief Bioengineer, Ján Kováč, have achieved significant milestones in our ongoing preclinical research:
Milestone 3: This critical milestone, focusing on tissue recellularization, is nearing completion. Biomechanical testing of the recellularized foreskins was successfully carried out this past weekend.
Milestone 4: The final milestone of this research project is set to begin next, with an anticipated completion timeline of 3–6 months. We will continue to keep you updated as this work advances toward clinical readiness.
Additionally, the initial setup has been completed and protocols developed for a timely histological analysis of the fully recellularized and maturized tissue. This brief analysis will be conducted following the completion of Milestone 4, providing the data needed to ensure the decellularization and recellularization protocols have been fully refined and perfected, in preparation for human clinical trials.
Inside the Lab: New Video Release
Foregen has released the first episode in a new video series showcasing our partner lab in Slovakia. Take a behind-the-scenes look at the facilities, equipment, and techniques being refined in preparation for future clinical trials. We look forward to releasing new episodes in the near future.
Grant Applications
We’ve begun actively seeking and applying for grant opportunities in both the EU and the USA. If you or someone you know has experience in grant writing and would like to contribute, we welcome your support. Please reach out to us at submissions@foregen.org.
Fundraising Update
This past month, our community raised $18,444. Your generosity fuels our research and brings us closer to making regenerative medicine a reality for circumcised men.
Thank you, as always, for your remarkable support and dedication to our mission.
