Professor Robert Brown, Director of the Tissue Repair and Engineering Centre based at 果冻影院 Institute of Orthopaedics, has been made President of British Tissue and Cell Engineering Society (TCES).
A number of 果冻影院 colleagues of Professor Brown have also taken up senior roles within TCES - Dr Mark Lewis, Reader at 果冻影院 Eastman has been made Treasurer, and Dr Vivek Mudera, Senior Lecturer at the Tissue Repair and Engineering Centre already serves on the TCES committee.
Professor Brown said: "Part of the reason for the promotion of 果冻影院 faculty to the TCES is that we're well used to networking across departments such as engineering, and across other academic institutions, in a collaborative way.
"Because we're multi-faceted, we've tended to evolve nice systems for working together which translate well at the national level.
"Unlike, say America, where institutions tend to be fiercely competitive, we enjoy success in low-key, low-cost meetings with colleagues that produce high-quality results. It's a more efficient model and one that we're now being asked to roll out across Europe."
