OncoRes Medical
Perth-based BioMedTech startup, OncoRes Medical, is on the cusp of revolutionising breast cancer treatment. The company is developing a device that improves a surgeon’s ability to remove all the cancerous tissue during breast cancer operations.
Through their investment in Brandon Capital, one of Australasia’s leading life science venture capital firms, HESTA is helping to advance progress in breast cancer treatment.
OncoRes Medical’s technology was developed domestically in a collaboration between the WA Department of Health, Harry Perkins Institute and the University of Western Australia, which helps grow the local biotech sector.
