The Reason for the Conference
All conferences not only contribute to increase new understandings about a research field, they also establish links among experts and, as a result, consolidate scientific cooperation and exchange among different institutions.
This is even more so about the “Regenerative Surgery” conference, where the topic addressed is an emerging and evolving scientific area. I am sure that in the following years, as statistics forecast, regenerative surgery will revolutionize medicine and surgery, providing solutions to pathologies with chronic and invalidating course that are now incurable.
The conference, given the peculiarity of its theme, will take place in the form of lectures, delivered by the most influential national and international researchers. They will try to evaluate the current situation of research and its clinical applications, and to establish collaborations and scientific information exchanges among young researchers.

Tissue regeneration is based upon clinical advances that have brought medical science a step ahead of the previous medical concept of repairing damaged human organism and replacing from outside what is no longer functioning.
Regeneration stimulates the human body to produce new young cells, new tissues and even new organs.Many scientific researches in this disciplinary domain are focused on stem cells; they are meant to understand how to stimulate their differentiation. Some human stem cells have already been differentiated in order to produce cardiomyocytes, glial cells, neurons, endothelial cells and insulin-producing cells.
The University of Rome Tor Vergata purchased Villa Mondragone, including a significant part of its original land, in 1981 and has always appreciated this vast palace’s remarkable historical-artistical-architectonical potential. The initial renovation are proof of the attention which is being paid to one of most prominent buildings owned by an Italian Public University. A globally significant Centre, Villa Mondragone powerfully stresses the Atheanaeum’s research activities and its influential presence in an area so rich in scientific and cultural structures. The multi-centennial history legacy turns the Villa into one of the main monuments of the Area Tuscolana, and also a place traditionally committed to interaction over great distances, often being absolutely pioneering and has frequently been a privileged scenario since the days of Galileo Galilei’s telescope, to the most recent experiments of Guglielmo Marconi, who realized at the Villa his first radiocommunication tests which opened the era of terrestrial microwave communications. In this place where Pope Gregorio XIII signed and proclaimed the papal Bull “Inter Gravissimas”, in 1582, giving birth to the new calendar nowadays widespread all over the world, many events able to mark and change the course of time have took place.
