The Bionic Human: Biomaterials, (Bio)Artificial and Bioengineered Organs and Cybernetics for the Future of Regenerative Medicine

3D-JOINT: bioprinted "living implants" to regenerate cartilage after joint damage.

The RM public campaign "Nieuwe nieren" was a success!
In this campaign, we showed what regenerative medicine contribute by means of a concrete example: the kidney.

Regenerative Medicine Utrecht is awardede for its Kennisplatform (knowledge platoform) by KNAW.

Doctors from UMC Utrecht, Erasmus MC and UMC Groningen have performed the first heart transplantation after cardiac death in the Netherlands. The procedure can drastically increase the number of heart donors available nationwide every year.

The project will be led by Keita Ito, prominent RM-researcher at TU/e and UMC Utrecht in the field of biomedical engineering.

Utrecht researchers studied a washed up whale to understand human idiopathic scoliosis.

3D printed kidney tubes that closely mimic living tubes for the first time make it possible to do research into kidney diseases and their treatment.

$650,000 prize money brings much-needed dialysis upgrade closer

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is one of the most common genetic diseases worldwide and has major consequences for patients. Although treatments are available to reduce the mucus and prevent inflammation typical of the disease, CF is not yet curable. CF is not yet curable. However, a new study by the Hans Clevers group (Hubrecht Institute) in collaboration with the Jeffrey Beekman group (UMC Utrech) and Oncode Institute offers new hope.

Biological kidney tubule allows to excrete waste products from the blood that normal dialysis cannot remove.

Roos Masereeuw and Jos Malda at the Utrecht Advanced In Vitro Models hub focus on improving in vitro models as an alternative for animal experimentation.

Roos Masereeuw and colleagues have demonstrated that multiple ‘living membranes’ from kidney cells can be combined into a functioning whole.

The new UMC Utrecht strategy was developed over a period of approximately one year. During that time, more than 2200 colleagues, patients, students and external experts and stakeholders took part in the strategy debate, which yielded interesting insights.
