An artistic visualization of the study results. The background is light blue. In the top left and the top right, there are two large drawings of brains. Inside the brains, there are colored nodes connected by lines. The brain on the left has fewer connections, while the one on the right has more complex and dense connections. There are four smaller brains in a cartoon drawing style. One in the center is thinking, while two on the right side of the image are engaging in activities like reading and lifting weights. One brain on the left is smiling. At the center of the image, there is a signpost with two arrows pointing left and right. The arrow pointing left says "LEARN," and the arrow pointing right "OR NOT TO LEARN." On its left side, a path goes up a hill with castle-like structures with a blue silhouette of a walking human. On its right side, a winding path leads uphill, with orange-colored hikers and climbers moving toward the brain with more connections. The orange figures on the right are depicted in an active stance, reaching the peak where a person stands with arms raised. © Warsha Barde

Research Groups

Our basic research is focused on elucidating the mechanisms underlying the emergence of tissues from embryonic progenitors in a variety of systems, including the central nervous system and the retina, the haematopoietic system, the pancreas and bone.

Technology Platform

The technology platform has several core facilities that provide access to state-of-the-art research equipment and offer specialized services based on the expertise of the CMCB research groups. This service requires intensive training of staff and major investment into maintenance and replacement of equipment.

Welcome to CRTD

Research at the Center for Regenerative Therapies Dresden (CRTD) at TUD Dresden University of Technology focuses on discovering principles of cell and tissue regeneration, and leveraging this for recognition, treatment, and reversal of diseases. The CRTD is well positioned for this challenge with its diversity in model organisms, organs, and disease systems and its range of methodological approaches from basic research to validation projects and clinical studies. The CRTD links the bench to the clinic, and scientists to clinicians to bring expertise in stem cells, gene-editing, and regeneration towards innovative therapies for metabolic, osteo-hematological, and neurological diseases.
