Histogenics Internship

Brigham and Women's Hospital

12/21/2017

 
At the Brigham and Women’s Hospital we met Dr. Mizuno who is a co-founder of Histogenics with a PhD, working in orthopedic research at Harvard Medical School.   Dr. Mizuno explained his involvement in the research he has done that led to the development the product NeoCart;
The idea he had was to take patients cells and biomaterials, and then put them into a bioreactor. The bioreactor is used to replicate the pressure of walking in order to help grow the knee cartilage. Dr. Mizuno explained the development of the machine that he created with other Japanese inventors and makers of the bioreactor;

Today Dr. Mizuno continues his research at Harvard, in order to further develop regenerative medicine products for the future

    We are seniors at SJP who are interested in science. Last summer, we participated in a two-week summer internship at Histogenics in Waltham.  Thanks so much to the Histogenics Company for making their time available to us, and especially chief technology officer Steve Kennedy, whose idea it was to make the experience possible.  Thank you!!
