Regenerative medicine deals with the "process of replacing, engineering or regenerating human or animal cells, tissues or organs to restore or establish normal function". [1] This field holds the promise of engineering damaged tissues and organs by stimulating the body's own repair mechanisms to functionally heal previously irreparable tissues ...
A major technology of regenerative medicine is tissue engineering, [2] which has variously been defined as "an interdisciplinary field that applies the principles of engineering and the life sciences toward the development of biological substitutes that restore, maintain, or improve tissue function", or "the creation of new tissue by the ...
The Centre for Regenerative Medicine (CRM) is a stem cell research centre at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland, dedicated to the study and development of new regenerative treatments for human diseases. [2] The centre forms part of the university's Institute for Regeneration and Repair and is part of the BioQuarter cluster at Little France ...
The California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) is a state agency that supports research and education in the fields of stem cell and gene therapiesIt was created in 2004 after 59% of California voters approved California Proposition 71: the Research and Cures Initiative, [1] which allocated $3 billion to fund stem cell research in California.
Stem cell regenerative medicine uses three different strategies: Implantation of stem cells from culture into an existing tissue structure; Implantation of stem cells into a tissue scaffold that guides restoration; Induction of residual cells of a tissue structure to regenerate the necessary body part
The National Center for Regenerative Medicine (NCRM) was founded in 2004 and specializes in regenerative medical research, while acting as the coordinating organization for other associated institutions.
