... Over the past two years, the Forum has identified important questions and challenges in the field of regenerative medicine that have led the group to explore a broad array of issues ranging from the unique challenges of manufacturing regenerative medicine products, to the complex needs of people who are exploring regenerative medicine as a treatment, to the difficulties of regulating a rapidly evolving field. By bringing together experts and leveraging a wide range of perspectives and knowledge, Forum members have collaborated to identify strategic opportunities to advance the field of regenerative medicine through hosting public workshops, publishing perspective papers and workshop proceedings, and developing information resources for the broader regenerative medicine community to support the advancement of high-quality science, efficient and effective therapies, and the safety and health of patients.
