Regenerative medicine (RM), an interdisciplinary field encompassing strategies and therapies which can regenerate tissues to treat the loss of organs and tissues through disease and injury. RM is the branch of medicine that harnesses the power of stem cells, biomaterials, cellular and gene therapy to repair, regenerate or replace diseased cells/ tissues/ organs. This life changing technology, therefore, has the promise to treat, manage and cure some of the most devastating diseases in the world today.

Ironically, many of these potentially life-changing regenerative medicine-based treatments are not successfully moved from the laboratory to a stage where they can be used in medicine and hence these never reach patients. In order to fulfil regenerative medicine’s promise to treat the many diseases affecting our population, a world-renowned group of stem cell scientists and bioengineers have come together to form Stemgenn.
