Signum Surgical

Signum Surgical is a medtech platform founded in 2014 by Eoin Bambury and Moshe Zilversmit with the goal of developing technologies to heal perianal fistula. Bambury and Zilversmit met at NUI Galway as part of the BioInnovate Ireland programme, and they saw a dearth of innovation in the treatment of perianal fistulas (small tunnels that developbetween the end of the bowel and the skin near the anus). The Signum Surgical gadget is inserted after surgery to avoid reinfection and speed up the healing process.
