The Mechanobiology Lab is funded primarily through research grants and student scholarships from South African and international funding agencies and foundations. While the lab has been growing steadily despite an increasingly difficult economic situation, your support can further strengthen our research in treatment and prevention of cardiovascular diseases, cancers, and infectious diseases.
Your support can be used towards:
- Financial aid of current post-graduate students
- Setting up scholarships for additional post-graduate students
- Enhancing the group's research
Please contact Prof Thomas Franz (email) if you consider making a donation or wish to find out more about how your support can help our students and research.
