2021 International Forum for Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine

Introduction

The Australia-China Centre for Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (ACCTERM) was established in 2013. This is a multi-institutional and multidisciplinary joint research centre that supports enhanced knowledge exchange, collaborative postgraduate training, and the development of new collaborative research initiatives. ACCTERM draws together new and longstanding research collaborations in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine and aid in creating a highly visible hub to attract competitive research funding and collaborative projects in this field. The Centre brings together a cooperative network of prestigious leading research institutes and universities both in Australia and China. The Centre supports collaborative research projects, cooperative PhD training, staff and student mobility, and the hosting of joint conferences and symposia on scientific topics of interest.
