The Applied Cell Sciences Educational Group at the School of Advanced Technologies in Medicine has been active since 2012 with the goal of training specialized and efficient professionals in the fields of regenerative medicine and cell therapy. This group, utilizing both primary and secondary faculty members from related clinical disciplines, provides an interdisciplinary platform for advancing research in areas such as stem cells, regenerative medicine, and immune cell therapy. This enables the execution of advanced research in fields like cellular differentiation, cell-based therapies, and the development of models for complex diseases. Every year, between 2 to 5 Ph.D. students are admitted in this field, participating in research projects with direct applications in clinical medicine.

The mission of the Applied Cell Sciences Educational Group is to advance knowledge and technology in the fields of cell therapy and regenerative medicine through the training of specialized professionals and conducting innovative research. This group, focusing on both fundamental and applied research, aims to address medical challenges in areas such as neurological, gastrointestinal, skin diseases, and cancer using advanced technologies. Additionally, the group collaborates with medical and industrial centers to translate its research achievements into clinical applications, taking effective steps towards improving public health. The education of students in this group is based on the latest scientific achievements, with an emphasis on creativity, innovation, and the practical applicability of research.

The vision of the Applied Cell Sciences Educational Group is to become one of the leading research and educational centers internationally in the fields of cell therapy and regenerative medicine. The group strives to attract top scientific talent, develop international collaborations with prestigious universities and research centers, and conduct pioneering research projects to become a recognized authority in the production of knowledge and advanced technologies. Additionally, the group seeks to establish research networks with pharmaceutical industries and knowledge-based companies to transform its achievements into new products and therapeutic methods. In the long term, the group aims to play a significant role in the future of medicine and improve the quality of life for patients by training the next generation of researchers and specialists.
