Welcome to TERM

Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine

The Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (TERM) group is based at the Biomedical Center (BMC), Faculty of Medicine, Department of Clinical Sciences, Orthopaedics, Lund University. Our research is translational with focus on repair, regenerate and replace diseased tissues. Engineered tissues and methods developed by our group will improve the quality of life of patients and potentially alleviate the burden on the public healthcare system. Special area of interest is musculoskeletal conditions.

The TERM Lund lab has close collaboration with Skåne University Hospital and major university centers globally. The group has during the last three years received 2.5 million Euro in competitive grants.
