Welcome to the SBPA Website. THIS MONTHS SPEAKER ……… May 22nd at 11;45 A.M. at the Davisville Church. Please join us to hear our featured speaker, Dr. John Kibler. Dr. Kibler will speak to us about regenerative medicine. Dr. John Kibler got his Ph.D. from Lehigh University and spent his career working on composite materials for Aerospace applications, such as communication satellite dishes. He is a scientist, but definitely NOT in the Medical field. He is currently an appointed committee person for the World Level Organization for Regenerative Medicine. There are four major components to Regenerative Medicine. · The first is Cell therapies. This area deals with healing diseased/damaged tissues rather than replacing them. An example would be cartilage or bone reconstruction · The Second is gene therapies. This deals with trying to correct a defective gene responsible for a disease. An example would be curing cystic fibrosis or hemophilia. · The third is tissue engineering. It is the science of growing replacement organs and tissue in the lab to replace damaged or diseased tissue. An example would be to replace a defective bladder, which has already been accomplished. · The fourth is Solid organs, such as liver, pancreas or heart. These are especially challenging because of their complex structure.
