The mission of the University of Florida Center for Regenerative Medicine (UF CRM) is to coordinate the discovery, development and delivery cycle of regenerative solutions to intractable disease across medical, surgical, and rehabilitation practices.
Building on the remarkable collaborative potential at the University of Florida, the center creates a world-class program to impact the lives of patients and their families. The Center for Regenerative Medicine catalyzes synergistic cross-disciplinary interactions among researchers and clinicians from the six colleges of the University of Florida Health Science Center, the Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI), as well as the Department of Biomedical Engineering.
Led by Dr. Mustafa Ahmed, the center will enhance our understanding of stem cell biology, characterize established and novel stem cell populations, as well as utilize regenerative cell therapies for patients with diseases that currently lack effective solutions.
The UF CRM is dedicated to its mission while achieving these four goals:
- Clinical Translation
- Maximize Collaboration
- External Connection
- Community Education
