Our Promise

OUR MISSION

CCRM’s mission is to generate sustainable health and economic benefits through global collaboration in regenerative medicine, and cell and gene therapy.

Regenerative medicine, which aims to harness the power of stem cells, biomaterials and molecules to repair, regenerate or replace diseased cells, tissues and organs, has the promise to treat, manage and perhaps cure some of the most devastating and costly diseases in the world today.

Many new and potentially life-changing regenerative medicine-based treatments never reach patients because they are not successfully moved from the laboratory to a stage where they can be used in medicine. In order to fulfill regenerative medicine’s promise to treat the many diseases affecting our population, a world-renowned group of stem cell scientists and bioengineers have come together to form CCRM.
