- Wake_Forest_Institute_for_Regenerative_Medicine abstract "Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine (WFIRM) is a research institute affiliated with Wake Forest School of Medicine and located in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, United States. WFIRM's goal is to apply the principles of regenerative medicine to repair or replaced diseased tissues and organs. WFIRM scientists, among other projects, are looking for ways to create insulin-producing cells in the laboratory, engineer blood vessels for heart bypass surgery and apply regenerative medicine technologies to battlefield injuries through co-leading an $85 million federal grant. All told, WFIRM is working to develop more than 30 different organs and tissues in the laboratory.Anthony Atala, M.D., is director of the Institute, which is located in Piedmont Triad Research Park (PTRP) in downtown Winston-Salem. Atala was recruited by Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in 2004, and brought many of his team members from the Laboratory for Tissue Engineering and Cellular Therapeutics at the Children's Hospital Boston and Harvard Medical School. Notable achievements announced at WFIRM have been the first lab-grown organ, a bladder, the artificial urinary bladder to be implanted into a human. and stem cells harvested from the amniotic fluid of pregnant women. These stems cells are pluripotent, meaning they can be manipulated to differentiate into various types of mature cells that make up nerve, muscle, bone, and other tissues while avoiding the problems of tumor formation and ethical concerns that are associated with embryonic stem cells.".
