The Regenerative Medicine track applies cells, biomaterials, and biochemical and biomechanical factors to create functional substitutes to replace tissues or organs lost due to age, disease, injury, or congenital defects, and functional mimics to aid the study of biological systems.
Application areas include musculoskeletal, urologic, neural, and vascular tissues and organs, wound healing and hemostasis.
For more information about the Regenerative Medicine course requirements, please visit the program requirements section of the biomedical engineering catalog and scroll down to the table labeled "Total Program Hours" and find the "Regenerative Medicine" entry in the table.
