Dr Roger Brooks and Dr Athina Markaki chaired a session on the Development of vascularisation strategies for tissue engineering constructs with Prof Dr C. James Kirkpatrick at the TERMIS World Congress meeting.

The 4th TERMIS World Congress event, which was held from September 8th- 11th in Boston, MA, was entitled “Past, Present Future: The Evolution of Regenerative Medicine,” and aimed to reflect the impact of tissue engineering throughout the past two decades, and focus on the future. The 2015 scientific program centred on the innovative technologies found in regenerative medicine.

The TERMIS World Congress Meeting is held every three years, and brings together researchers, scientists, trainees, and students from both academia and industry to discuss critical developments in the field.
