Strategic research area (SRA) in stem cells and regenerative medicine

Stem cells play an important role in the development of tissues, and for maintenance and regeneration of tissues in adulthood. Research in this field is rapidly expanding our understanding of these processes. Stem cell therapies are established in clinical medicine for malignant as well as for non-malignant conditions and novel therapies are continuously developed and entered in preclinical and clinical trials. Our vision is to support research and infrastructure within the field of stem cells and regenerative medicine with the aim to enhance quality and signifiance, as well as clinical value, of this program.
