Researcher Bios
The National Center for Regenerative Medicine brings
together some of the nation’s foremost experts in the
field of stem cell research and treatment. In addition
the center’s education component enables nurses,
graduate students, technicians, and physicians to
acquire the complex skills required to perform
groundbreaking research and deliver high quality patient
care in this new field.
Approximately 110 researchers from Case Western
Reserve University, Cleveland Clinic, and
University Hospitals Case Medical Center are investigators in
the center. Additional information about these
researchers is available in the menu on this page.
What people are saying about the NCRM and its
researchers
“This (center) will help us build on the solid
foundation that we have developed for non-embryonic stem
cell research in Cleveland,” said Ralph I. Horwitz,
M.D., dean of the School of Medicine and director of the
Case Research Institute. “It is a ringing endorsement of
the research talent that is found at Case, the Cleveland
Clinic and University Hospitals Case Medical Center.”
“There is clearly a synergy among Cleveland stem cell
researchers that is being recognized at state and
federal levels,” said Fred C. Rothstein, M.D., president
and chief executive officer of University Hospitals Case Medical Center. “Over the last 30 years, the collaboration
between UHCMC and Case has resulted in much deeper
understanding of the potential for non-embryonic stem
cells.”
“In addition to the state-of-the-art research that
will impact the lives of countless people, this center
fosters growing collaborations which will significantly
contribute to Northeast Ohio’s continued emergence as a
leading biomedical center,” said Paul DiCorleto, Ph.D.,
chair of The Lerner Research Institute at the Cleveland
Clinic.
