Third Frontier Projects: CTEC

Clinical Tissue Engineering Center

The Clinical Tissue Engineering Center is a collaborative partnership between The Cleveland Clinic, Case Western Reserve University, University Hospitals, NASA Glenn Research Center and the Ohio Supercomputer Center. In addition, CTEC comprises numerous regional, national and international commercial partners. This unique collaboration was founded with a $4 million award under Ohio's Biomedical Research and Commercialization Partnership Program from the Third Frontier Project.

CTEC's mission is to accelerate the rate at which new tissue engineering discoveries and inventions are generated and translated into new treatments, products, companies and Ohio-based opportunities. CTEC investigators focus on translating tissue engineering strategies into methods, devices, diagnostic tools and therapeutics for the treatment of human disease.
