Innovative idea delivers good news for expecting mothers

Thanks to an exciting new medical discovery by Professor Roger Smith of the University of Newcastle, development is now under way for a new diagnostic test that will predict when a woman will go into labour.

With the help of Newcastle Innovation and the Hunter Medical Research Institute (HMRI) a $205,766 grant has been secured from Commercialisation Australia to fund the project. In addition to this, a matching investment from the Medical Research Commercialisation Fund (MRCF) brings the total project funding to over $436,000.

Newcastle Innovation has been proud to support Professor Roger Smith with his innovative discoveries and looks forward to working together with he and his research partners to ensure the project's success.
