Join I AM Regen →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.

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.

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.
