Conference Description
The Tissue Repair and Regeneration GRC is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes an array of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide, concentrating on the latest developments in the field. The conference is five days long and held in a remote location to increase the sense of camaraderie and create scientific communities, with lasting collaborations and friendships. In addition to premier talks, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field.
The conference will highlight emerging concepts that view regeneration as a coordinated and potentially programmable biological process integrating developmental, immune, mechanical, and metabolic signaling networks. Sessions will address how tissues detect injury, initiate repair programs, and balance regenerative outcomes with fibrosis and tissue dysfunction, particularly under physiological and clinical constraints such as aging and chronic disease. The program will also explore comparative insights from highly regenerative organisms and advances in bioengineering, synthetic biology, and quantitative approaches aimed at measuring, predicting, and directing regenerative responses. By integrating fundamental biology with translational and engineering perspectives, the meeting seeks to define principles that govern regenerative capacity across organ systems and enable their rational design and control.
The conference chair is currently developing their preliminary program, which will include 9 sessions and the names of the invited speakers and discussion leaders for each of these sessions. The preliminary program will be available by September 30, 2026. Please check back for updates.
