The growing field of Regenerative Rehabilitation has great potential to improve clinical outcomes for individuals with disabilities. However, the science to elucidate the specific biological underpinnings of Regenerative Rehabilitation-based approaches is still in its infancy and critical questions regarding clinical translation and implementation still exist. In a recent roundtable discussion from International Consortium for Regenerative Rehabilitation (ICRR) stakeholders, key challenges to progress in the field were identified. The goal of this white paper is to summarize those discussions and to initiate a broader discussion among clinicians and scientists across the fields of regenerative medicine and rehabilitation science to ultimately progress Regenerative Rehabilitation from an emerging field to an established interdisciplinary one. Strategies and case studies from Consortium institutions-including interdisciplinary research centers, formalized courses, degree programs, international symposia, and collaborative grants-are presented. We propose that these strategic directions have the potential to engage and train clinical practitioners and basic scientists, transform clinical practice and, ultimately, optimize patient outcomes.

再生康复的下一步：建立新的跨学科领域

不断发展的再生康复领域在改善残障人士的临床结果方面具有巨大潜力。然而，阐明基于再生康复的方法的特定生物学基础的科学仍处于起步阶段，关于临床转化和实施的关键问题仍然存在。在最近国际再生康复联盟 (ICRR) 利益相关者的圆桌讨论中，确定了该领域取得进展的主要挑战。本白皮书的目标是总结这些讨论，并在再生医学和康复科学领域的临床医生和科学家之间发起更广泛的讨论，最终将再生康复从一个新兴领域发展为一个成熟的跨学科领域。介绍了联盟机构的战略和案例研究——包括跨学科研究中心、正规课程、学位课程、国际研讨会和合作资助。我们建议这些战略方向有可能吸引和培训临床从业者和基础科学家，改变临床实践，并最终优化患者的治疗效果。
