Background

edit
Main articles: Tissue engineering and Regenerative medicine

Regenerative medicine involves processes of replacing, engineering or regenerating human cells, tissues or organs to restore or establish normal function. A major technology of regenerative medicine is tissue engineering,[2] which has variously been defined as "an interdisciplinary field that applies the principles of engineering and the life sciences toward the development of biological substitutes that restore, maintain, or improve tissue function", or "the creation of new tissue by the deliberate and controlled stimulation of selected target cells through a systematic combination of molecular and mechanical signals".[3]

History

edit

Tissue engineering emerged during the 1990s as a potentially powerful option for regenerating tissue and research initiatives were established in various cities in the US and in European countries including the UK, Italy, Germany and Switzerland, and also in Japan. Soon fledgling societies were formed in these countries in order to represent these new sciences, notably the European Tissue Engineering Society (ETES) and, in the US, the Tissue Engineering Society (TES), soon to become the Tissue Engineering Society international (TESi) and the Regenerative Medicine Society (RMS).[4]

Because of the overlap between the activities of these societies and the increasing globalization of science and medicine, considerations of a merger between TESI and ETES and RMS were initiated in 2004 and agreement was reached during 2005 about the formation of the consolidated society, the Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine International Society (TERMIS).[5] Election of officers for TERMIS took place in September 2005, and the by-laws were approved by the Board.

Rapid progress in the organization of TERMIS took place during late 2005 and 2006. The SYIS, Student and Young Investigator Section was established in January 2006, website and newsletter launched and membership dues procedures put in place.

Structure and governance

edit

It was determined that each Chapter would have its own Council, the overall activities being determined by the Governing Board, on which each Council was represented, and an executive committee.

Society chapters

edit

At the beginning of the Society, it was agreed that there would be Continental Chapters of TERMIS, initially TERMIS-North America (TERMIS-NA) and TERMIS-Europe (TERMIS-EU), to be joined at the time of the major Shanghai conference in October 2005 by TERMIS-Asia Pacific (TERMIS-AP). It was subsequently agreed that the remit of TERMIS-North America should be expanded to incorporate activity in South America, the chapter becoming TERMIS-Americas (TERMS-AM) officially in 2012.

Student and Young Investigator Section

edit

The Student and Young Investigator Section of TERMIS (TERMIS-SYIS) brings together undergraduate and graduate students, post-doctoral researchers and young investigators in industry and academia related to tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.[6] It follows the organizational and working pattern of TERMIS.

A contract was signed between TERMIS and the Mary Ann Liebert publisher which designated the journal Tissue Engineering, Parts A, B, and C as the official journal of TERMIS with free on-line access for the membership.[7]

Conferences

edit

It was agreed that there would be a World Congress every three years, with each Chapter organizing its own conference in the intervening two years.

Awards

edit

Each TERMIS chapter has defined awards to recognize outstanding scientists and their contributions within the community.

TERMIS-AP

edit
  • The Excellence Achievement Award has been established to recognize a researcher in the Asia-Pacific region who has made continuous and landmark contributions to the tissue engineering and regenerative medicine field.
  • The Outstanding Scientist Award has been established to recognize a mid-career researcher in the Asia-Pacific region who has made significant contributions to the TERM field.
  • The Young Scholar Award has been established to recognize a young researcher in the Asia-Pacific region who has made significant and consistent achievements in the TERM field, showing clear evidence of their potential to excel.
  • The Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. Best TERM Paper Award has been established to recognize a student researcher (undergraduate/graduate/postdoc) in the Asia-Pacific region who has achieved outstanding research accomplishments in the TERM field.
  • The TERMIS-AP Innovation Team Award has been established to recognize a team of researchers in the Asia-Pacific region. It aims to recognize successful applications of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine leading to the development of relevant products/therapies/technologies which will ultimately benefit the patients.

TERMIS-EU

edit
  • The Career Achievement Award is aimed towards a recognition of individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the field of TERM and have carried out most of their career in the TERMIS-EU geographical area.
  • The Mid Terms Career Award has been established in 2020 to recognize individuals that are within 10–20 years after obtaining their PhD, with a successful research group and clear evidence of outstanding performance.
  • The Robert Brown Early Career Principal Investigator Award recognizes individuals that are within 2–10 years after obtaining their PhD, with clear evidence of a growing profile.
