The European Chapter Meeting of the Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine International Society (TERMIS-EU 2013) will be organized on June 17-20 in Istanbul. The Meeting will bring together scientists and experts from both academia and industry and also those engaged or interested in funding regulatory and commercial endeavors related to tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, which will be held in one of the most beautiful corners in Turkey with a unique atmosphere resulting a mixture of cultures that have passed through this bridging landscape from one continent to the other where contrastingly historical and modern Istanbul sits today.

The following topics will be included in the special sessions during these four days-meeting: Biomaterials; Scaffold Designs and Fabrication Technologies; Tissues and Cells; Stem Cells Science; Genetic Modifications and Regulations; Bioreactors; Bioactive Agents; Animal Models; Clinical Trials; Sensors and Arrays for Molecular Follow-ups; Bioimaging; Nanoapproaches; Bioprinting; Biomimetics and Bioinspration and more. These sessions will include keynote lectures on thematically-related research and development addressing significant problems, current developments, planned research directions and challenges in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine which will be presented by leading researchers in this multidisciplinary field.

There will also be special symposia and workshops organized by selected individuals and/or together with other scientific societies/institutions, during and around the Meeting and also attached to it. Special focus will be given to the translational aspects of our field as well promoting young researchers. The student chapter of TERMIS called the Student and Young Investigator Section (SYIS) collaborates with the meeting host to organize various student activities during the meeting.
