The Centre for Regenerative Medicine and Devices, University of Brighton is proud to host the conference of the Tissue and Cell Engineering Society (TCES) that will be held in our state-of-the-art facilities of the Huxley Building, Moulsecoomb Campus, Brighton from 15 to 17 June 2026.

We were honoured and grateful to see our bid accepted by the TCES board!

This event comes at a time when our field of research is gaining traction; after years of rigorous research delivered by the UK community treatments based on tissue and cell engineering are now entering a new phase leading to translation. Grand View Horizon have reported that ‘The UK tissue engineering market generated a revenue of USD 683.3 million in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 1,714.6 million by 2030.’ The report suggests that this growth is driven by a range of clinical needs, among which cord blood and cell banking, skin, urology, musculoskeletal, cardiology and vascular applications are mentioned.

TCES2026 will be an opportunity for our community to showcase how gain in fundamental knowledge can inform the development of new advanced treatments. Suppliers, researchers and innovative companies will have an opportunity to learn from each other, to establish new collaborations, and to see their role in the field being valued.

At the same time, TCES2026 wants to be an opportunity to showcase the human capital of our scientific community, in particular the talent of our young scientists who will shape innovation in the years to come.

Social events will give an opportunity to find new friends, to network and to enjoy our vibrant city of Brighton and Hove.

We look forward to seeing you next June!
