Regenerative Engineering and Translational Medicine

Regenerative Engineering and Translational Medicine is an international journal covering convergence (the deep integration) of the disciplines of advanced materials science, stem cell research, the physical sciences, developmental biology, and clinical translation.  Convergence brings exciting opportunities to translate bench-top research into bedside methods, allowing the possibility of moving beyond maintaining or repairing tissues to regenerating them. The journal encourages both top-down engineering approaches and bottom-up strategies integrating materials science with stem cell research and developmental biology. Convergence papers on instructive biomaterials, stimuli-responsive biomaterials, micro- and nano-patterning for regenerative engineering, elastomeric biomaterials, hydrogels for tissue engineering, and rapid prototyping and bioprinting approaches are particularly welcome. Topical reviews are also highly encouraged.
