IMPACT OF OUR POP RESEARCH
Prof Gargett is developing the first cell-based bioengineered therapy for Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) using eMSC and new biomaterials. The impact of the knowledge generated in evaluating their new bioengineered therapy in a rat model of “POP” repair (2014) was the initiation of a new line of research in Urogynaecology. She and now others have progressed her pioneering research to large animal vaginal surgery models of POP, nanotechnologies and 3D (bio)printing. She trained 3 gynaecologists in this new technology, one received 3 International awards, was invited to present at a Gordon Research Conference (2016) and leads a research group in Graz, Austria. She secured 3 CIA NHMRC Project, Investigator & SIEF grants for our POP research and given 14 international invited presentations, including The Royal Society, London (2017) and IUGA Clinical Conference (2020, 2019, 2018, 2022) and was invited to join IUGA S
