Frontier Grant
Ditte Jæhger
Gene therapy targeting knee osteoarthritis
Danish Technical University - DTU
Researchers from DTU Health Tech are aiming to help osteoarthritis sufferers with a combination of genomic medicine and a special material for precision medicine delivery to the knee joint.
An injection directly into the knee of a genomic medicine depot could hold a future cure for knee osteoarthritis. This is what Ditte Elisabeth Jæhger, MSc, PhD and her team at DTU Health Tech at the Technical University of Denmark are working towards.
Jæhger has just been awarded a DKK 5 million Frontier Grant by the Lundbeck Foundation for an 18-month plan for the maturation of the technology for presentation to potential investors.
