New frontiers in<br />

regenerative medicine<br />

Last month, world leaders in regenerative medicine descended upon<br />

the ITALIAn city of Venice for the annual International BioBridge<br />

Foundation Conference. Caitlin Bishop repoRTS.<br />

Each year a collection of the world’s best minds in<br />

regenerative medicine unite in the Italian city of<br />

Venice for the International BioBridge Foundation<br />

conference. Set amidst the canals <strong>and</strong> history of one of<br />

the most beautiful cities built by man, the two-day meeting<br />

delves into the latest innovations <strong>and</strong> future possibilities in<br />

regenerative medicine.<br />

Regen Lab, known in Australia as the manufacturers <strong>and</strong><br />

distributors of Regen Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), supports<br />

the annual conference. This year, several Australian doctors<br />

specialising in PRP attended the conference to keep<br />

Australia at the forefront of using PRP <strong>and</strong> stem cells in<br />

regenerative <strong>and</strong> aesthetic medicine.<br />

are presented solely in the field of platelet rich plasma <strong>and</strong><br />

stem cell regeneration by medical professionals all over the<br />

world from nearly all disciplines,’ explains Sydney cosmetic<br />

doctor Dr Ronald Feiner. ‘This creates an opportunity for<br />

delegates to learn from each other <strong>and</strong> exchange ideas in a<br />

truly international forum.’<br />

Although a relatively new field, regenerative medicine has<br />

fast been gaining traction across the globe. Researchers are<br />

exploring the possibilities in using the body’s own natural<br />

processes – calling upon platelets <strong>and</strong> stem cells – to help<br />

repair <strong>and</strong> replace human tissue <strong>and</strong> organs.<br />

‘Many of the BioBridge presentations were at the cutting<br />

edge of regenerative medicine, discussing innovative<br />

uses such as combining PRP <strong>and</strong> bone marrow-derived<br />

stem cells to treat orthopaedic fractures, <strong>and</strong> using PRP<br />

in conjunction with hyaluronics in sports medicine <strong>and</strong><br />

rheumatology,’ Dr Feiner says. ‘We also heard about using<br />

PRP alongside fat transfer grafting in improving facial<br />
