The Centre for Regenerative Medicine and Devices aims to achieve pioneering, patient-driven treatments and technological innovation in regenerative medicine and medical devices.
Responding to some of the most recognised socio-economic challenges, the centre focuses on scientific knowledge, diagnostics and treatments based on regenerative medicine and devices in six main priority areas: neurodegenerative diseases and sensory dysfunctions, diabetes, wound healing, cardiovascular diseases, musculoskeletal diseases and sensitive science.
The Centre for Regenerative Medicine and Devices focuses its medical research expertise on major clinical conditions and developing treatments. Our research brings deep scientific knowledge, allowing breakthrough innovation across clinical applications and key enabling technologies, as well as developing the role of public and patient participation.
Our University of Brighton academic and postgraduate student members can be found on the profile pages.
We also have the following members from Brighton and Sussex Medical School: Dr Samira Bouyagoub, Professor Mara Cercignani, Dr Nicholas Dowell, Professor Gordon Ferns, Professor Pietro Ghezzi, Dr Snezana Levic, Dr Manuela Mengozzi,Dr Lisa Mullen.
