A huge thank you πŸ™ to everyone who made ACTLIFE 2025 such a success. The room was full of energy. One of our polls asked: β€œIn one word, what do we need more of to help everyone lead a physically active lifestyle?” The responses were varied. This clearly shows there’s no one-size-fits-all solution.

BBC are reporting issues with pelvic floor mesh devices.
Polypropylene mesh cause adhesions and activated immune responses. We need biomimetic prosthesis with no long term immune response.
