Locate Bio Ltd.
Locate is a privately owned University of Nottingham spin out company, which has been formed around the research interests of Professor Kevin Shakesheff who is Director of the Wolfson Centre for Stem Cells, Tissue Engineering and Modeling (STEM) at the University of Nottingham. Professor Shakesheff’s inventions and scientific breakthroughs have resulted in over 220 peer-reviewed full papers that have been cited more than 6,000 times to date. He currently holds a prestigious European Research Council Advanced Grant within an active research portfolio of more than £10 million. In 2013 he was appointed as Director of the UK Regenerative Medicine Platform Hub in Acellular Technologies. More than £2.5m of grant funding, including £1m from the Wellcome Trust, has already been invested in the development of TAOS, which has been robustly validated in a number of important regenerative medicine and drug delivery applications. These have attracted a number of important early specialty pharma and cell therapy research and development partners underlining the commercial potential of the technology and the company. In Q2 2013 the Technology Strategy Board/Innovate UK awarded Locate a £1.39m grant over three years to develop TAOS in combination with statins, widely-available generic drugs, for a presently unlicensed osteoinductive mode of action. *
