6 and 7 February 2019 RegMed XB organised its first annual meeting with numerous lectures and workshops. On the second day there was a special sub-programme in which the public and patients were invited to gain knowledge about the possibilities that regenerative medicine offers to (help) heal these conditions. In RegMed XB, academic partners, health foundations, patients, growing start-ups and established companies work together in a focused way and build a regenerative medicine ecosystem.
