Biomedical Grants & Funding
Accelerating breakthroughs in developing and testing innovative health and care solutions across life sciences, including therapeutics, medical devices, and digital health.
Secure Funding for Biomedical Innovation
The UK is a global leader in biomedical innovation, a rapidly evolving intersection of engineering, biology, and materials science that redefines our approach to disease, diagnostics, and therapeutics.
Innovation spans a broad spectrum, from lab-on-a-chip platforms and AI-enabled biosensors to tissue engineering, wearable health monitors, and computational biology. These technological advances empower disease prevention and proactive health management, early and precise diagnosis, and tailored treatments that can transform care delivery and enable patient self-care.
Yet the path from prototype to practical application is long, complex, and resource-intensive. That’s where strong strategic support and funding are essential.
At Streets Innovation, we help organisations secure the grants, R&D tax relief, and advisory backing they need to move biomedical innovations from concept through clinical validation to real-world impact.
Examples of qualifying work include:
- Designing biocompatible and bioresorbable materials for implants, scaffolds, and medical devices that enable tailored treatments, with the potential to alter the underlying disease or even offer cures.
- Developing lab-on-a-chip and microfluidic platforms for rapid diagnostics and point-of-care testing. These support earlier and better detection and diagnosis of disease, ultimately improving patient outcomes and transforming the delivery of healthcare.
- Engineering MEMS and nanosensors for real-time health monitoring, pivotal for disease prevention and proactive management of chronic conditions.
- Pioneering tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, including 3D bioprinting and scaffold optimisation, to enable restorative healthcare interventions and shift away from symptomatic care.
- Creating AI-enabled bioimaging and biosignal analysis tools, enhancing the accuracy of diagnosis and disease monitoring, thus supporting better patient outcomes and more proactive care.
- Prototyping wearable and implantable biomedical devices, such as smart prosthetics and bioelectronics, to support consumer-focused self-care and improved patient autonomy.
- Developing scalable bioprocessing techniques for bio-based compounds, cell therapies, and synthetic biology products, which drive next-generation therapeutic manufacturing.
- Investigating advanced drug delivery solutions, such as nanoparticle carriers, sustained-release systems, and targeted mechanisms, key to precise treatments and greater efficacy.
- Advancing preclinical instrumentation, including automated screening systems and organ-on-chip models, to ensure safe, efficient validation of biomedical innovations.
- Innovating in bioinformatics and computational biology, using advanced algorithms for genomics, proteomics, and personalised medicine to enable transformative healthcare delivery, tailored interventions, and deeper predictive insights.
Our team prepares technically robust and fully compliant claims that withstand HMRC review, allowing you to recover valuable funds and reinvest in your innovation roadmap.
