OUR VISION/MISSION
To birth the new and emerging field of Regenology, an interdisciplinary field of medicine which encourages collaboration from the bench to the clinic and across all specialties of medicine. To teach clinicians and consumers about the FIRRIMup™ model of healing the whole person which promotes treatments that are safe, therapeutically effective, sustainable, and affordable, and aims to ultimately prevent disease and reverse chronic conditions including those conditions that have exhausted all conventional therapies.
