The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), in conjunction with the Multi Agency Tissue Engineering Science (MATES) working group is sponsoring a topical workshop to identify imaging needs and challenges in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (TERM).
This workshop will identify areas of opportunity, and stimulate new collaborations and applications of cutting edge imaging methods in TERM. This will help to shape the future of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine research.
Session Topics will include:
Foster cutting-edge imaging for application in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM). Toward this goal, the workshop will bring together the leaders from the TERM and imaging communities for cross-fertilization of ideas and practical approaches.
The workshop aims to accelerate development and adoption of advanced imaging methodologies and tools by identifying current needs of tissue engineers, from the molecular to the macroscopic scales, and consider approaches to meet those needs. The workshop will focus on functional, noninvasive methods appropriate for in vitro and in vivo TERM work.
Members of academia, industry, and government with interests in TERM, imaging, and especially the application of imaging methods in TERM.
