One association, eight engines of the field.
Wear it in the room.
Every member and fellow is issued their I AM Regen. congress pass at Torino 2027 — your rank, on a lanyard, worn on the floor. A declaration you can hold.
The thinking behind the movement.
The case for regenerating the joint before replacing it is set out in the written work of our Founding President, Professor Paul Lee — from peer-reviewed textbook to practical field guide. Together they form a philosophy of regeneration: science, engineering and clinical craft in one argument.
The Amazon #1 bestseller that makes the case to a wider audience — why the body is built to repair, and how to work with it rather than against it.
A hands-on companion translating the science into everyday clinical decisions — the field guide for putting regeneration into practice.

The International Association of Musculoskeletal Regeneration (I AM Regen) exists to take regeneration from principle to standard of care.
Who leads the International Association of Musculoskeletal Regeneration?
I AM Regen is led by an executive team: a President (Professor Paul Lee), a President-Elect who also chairs the Scientific Advisory Board (Professor Feza Korkusuz), a Vice-President (Dr. Luminita Labusca), a Congress President and Education Vice-President (Professor Riccardo Ferracini) and a Research & Grants Vice-President who co-chairs the Scientific Advisory Board (Professor Victoria Sarafian).

What is an I AM Regen Centre of Excellence?
An I AM Regen Centre of Excellence is a clinic or laboratory recognised by the International Association of Musculoskeletal Regeneration for meeting its standard in regenerative practice or science. I AM Regen recognises centres — clinical and laboratory — rather than certifying individuals.
When and where is the next I AM Regen Congress?
The 5th Annual Congress of the International Association of Musculoskeletal Regeneration takes place on 12 February 2027 at the Accademia di Medicina in Torino, Italy.
What is the I AM Regen consensus (Delphi) process?
Each year the International Association of Musculoskeletal Regeneration runs a structured, multi-round Delphi consensus so its members and Fellows can agree international positions on musculoskeletal regeneration, published as a consensus statement.
What is the I AM Regen Travelling Fellowship?
The I AM Regen Travelling Fellowship connects the association lab to lab and clinic to clinic: a Fellow hosts at their I AM Regen Centre of Excellence and Members apply to visit, learn and collaborate.
Say it. Earn it. Wear it.
Membership opens ahead of Torino 2027. Join the people building the future of musculoskeletal regeneration.
