Join us as we translate today’s discoveries into tomorrow’s medicine!
Regenerative medicine is a new and developing field that aims to restore function in diseased or aged tissues through either revitalizing existing cells or transplanting new ones. At the Board of Governors Regenerative Medicine Institute, researchers are turning stem cells into therapies for treating a multitude of prevalent diseases and conditions. We’re also exploring how to prevent diseases and we’re extending our knowledge to students in Los Angeles and researchers around the world.
