2018 REM Seed grants
Seed Grants Awarded
Congratulations to the three interdisciplinary, multi-university teams awarded seed grants by the Regenerative Engineering and Medicine Research Center.

Submit your abstract and join leading academic, clinical, and industry experts for the 23rd annual Regenerative Medicine Workshop which provides the latest research and trends in the regenerative medicine field.

The research center will compare traditional cortisone injection outcomes to outcomes using stem cell injections from autologous bone marrow concentrate, manufactured stem cells from umbilical cord tissue, and adipose-derived stem cells.

C. Michael Cassidy joined Emory University on October 1 to direct new biomedical catalyst.

Georgia Tech awarded a three year, $1.8 million grant from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to develop a scalable manufacturing system for cord-tissue derived cells.

A new study shows how intercellular communication affects the differentiation of an embryonic stem cell colony over time.

Researchers in the University of Georgia's Regenerative Bioscience Center have succeeded in reproducing the effects of traumatic brain injury and stimulating recovery in neuron cells grown in a petri dish.

ArunA Biomedical, based in Georgia in the USA, is developing an exosome-based treatment for strokes following observations seen in neural stem cells.
