Growth & Impact in Regenerative Medicine
Tracking the rapid rise of our community, funding, innovation, and scholarly output.
With support from the Biosciences Initiative, Regenerative Medicine at the University of Michigan launched a campus-wide effort in 2019 to connect researchers across colleges and schools. Since then, our community has expanded, funding has grown, and discoveries have moved from ideas to inventions, startups, and impact.
Growth in Financial Support
Growing financial investment is enabling U-M researchers to pursue bold ideas, form larger research teams, and translate discoveries more rapidly. These resources strengthen our collaborative foundation and help position us as leaders in emerging areas of regeneration, repair, and restoration.

Growth in Collaboration
Regenerative medicine thrives on collaboration. Our Community of Scholars brings together faculty, trainees, and staff from Dentistry, Engineering, Medicine, Pharmacy, and beyond to form cross-disciplinary teams. The time-lapse below visualizes how this network has grown denser, more connected, and more interdisciplinary since 2018.
