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.
Frequently asked questions.
What is I AM Regen?
I AM Regen is the International Association of Musculoskeletal Regeneration — an international professional programme operated by MSK REGEN (registered charity no. 1211400, England and Wales). It is professionally informed and trustee-governed, and brings clinicians, scientists and centres together to develop transparent standards, consensus and education for musculoskeletal regeneration.
Who leads the International Association of Musculoskeletal Regeneration?
I AM Regen is a programme of the charity MSK REGEN; its trustees hold ultimate governance. The programme 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 (Professor 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). These are programme appointments; Members and Fellows do not have a governance vote.
What is the difference between an I AM Regen Member and a Fellow?
Members join the programme by application. Fellow is a recognition of standing and contribution, by application and invitation — the honour is not purchasable. Fellows can host visiting fellowships and lead I AM Regen Centres of Excellence. Member membership is €100/year and includes Congress registration, subject to capacity and event rules; the Fellow service tier is €150/year.
How do I join I AM Regen?
Apply and pay online as a Member for €100/year (Student €50/year with current-enrolment evidence). Membership includes Congress registration, subject to capacity and event rules, and makes you eligible to take part in the consensus process. Membership does not buy authorship or a governance vote.
What is an I AM Regen Centre of Excellence?
An I AM Regen Centre of Excellence is a clinic or laboratory recognised by IAMRegen under a published standard for regenerative practice or science. Recognition is voluntary and time-limited — it is not a licence to practise, regulatory approval or a certification of every practitioner or treatment.
When and where is the next I AM Regen Congress?
The 5th IAMRegen International Congress takes place on Friday 12 February 2027 at the Accademia di Medicina in Torino, Italy, in person only. It is the fifth meeting in the continuing MSK Regen–IAMRegen series and the first held under the IAMRegen name.
What is the I AM Regen consensus (Delphi) process?
IAMRegen develops consensus through two anonymous online Delphi rounds with published thresholds, ratified at the in-person Congress. The first IAMRegen consensus programme is in development and no annual consensus has yet been published. Completing both rounds and attending the Congress qualifies a participant for collaborator recognition — authorship is separate and contribution-based.
What is the I AM Regen Travelling Fellowship?
The I AM Regen Travelling Fellowship connects the network 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.
