The conference was attended by leading researchers, clinicians, companies and financiers and is held annually in London.

Mr Anderson said:

This is the second time we have been invited to present at the conference and it is a pleasure to return with more positive clinical data, groundbreaking tissue engineering approaches and significant milestones achieved
