Dubai is set to host the Regenerative Medicine ASRM Congress 2025, organised by the American Spine Centre in collaboration with the Abu Dhabi Biobank and the American Society of Regenerative Medicine, at the JW Marriott Marina on 24th–25th October.
The congress will spotlight the Abu Dhabi Biobank’s expanding role in advancing regenerative research through cord-blood stem cells and will convene leading local and international experts in regenerative medicine, stem-cell science, and translational research to examine how cellular therapies are transforming the future of healthcare.
The event will bring together regional and global specialists to discuss groundbreaking developments in cellular research, mitochondrial medicine, functional medicine, laser applications with stem cells, and innovative treatments for aesthetic disorders, hormonal optimisation, degenerative joint disease, and neurological conditions.
“Cord blood stem cells have moved well beyond their early use in blood and immune disorders and are increasingly becoming critical to the next generation of regenerative medicine. Since its inception in 2024, Abu Dhabi Biobank has been at the forefront of preserving research-grade cord blood samples to enable their use in therapeutics aiming to improve the health of our community in the UAE and beyond,” said Paul Downey, General Manager, Abu Dhabi Biobank.
Dr. Hisham Hakim, Congress Chairman and Chairman, American Spine Centre, said, “By ensuring ethically sourced, clinically viable cord-blood stem cells are accessible for research and treatment, the Abu Dhabi Biobank is connecting discovery with delivery. Its contribution enables true translation of science into practice for academicians and practicing healthcare professionals.”
