Interdisciplinary Collaboration
Regenerative medicine solutions require expertise across disciplines in medicine and engineering to develop transformative solutions in science and health care. With support from the state of Indiana, philanthropic donors, foundations and the federal government, the center partners with private industry to develop new treatments for disease.
The center’s team of investigators are located throughout the state of Indiana, converging toward excellence in regenerative medicine and engineering, in partnership with industry and government agencies. Together, this team is working to address four core pillars: Cell-Based Therapies; Tissue Engineering; Wound, Burn, and Inflammation; and Military Health.
