TERMIS-Americas Thematic Working Interest Groups (TWIGs)
The objectives of the TWIGs are:
- to give all members of TERMIS-AM an opportunity to participate more directly in the life of the society
- to provide support for programming in specific domains . this is important as the society grows in numbers of members and breadth of topics
- to provide an opportunity to learn the workings of a professional society with the goal of readying talented, motivated individuals for leadership roles in TERMIS-AM and TERMIS International
- to address new and emerging areas impacting tissue engineering and provide a platform to introduce these areas into our meeting
The Open Call for Visioning Theme Submissions form is brief and designed to be a two-page submission that identifies broad research themes from engineering stakeholders in academia, industry, non-profit, and government sectors.Below is a brief introduction to ERVA for your use in member communications and on social media:
Calling all engineers: Submit your Visioning Theme Ideas to the Engineering Research Visioning Alliance. The Engineering Research Visioning Alliance (ERVA) is an NSF-funded, five-year effort to identify and develop bold and transformative new engineering research directions and to catalyze the engineering community's pursuit of innovative, high-impact research that benefits society. TERMIS is an ERVA Affiliate Partner and supports this mission.
ERVA is selecting key research themes for visioning and would like to hear your ideas! Please answer the call for visioning theme submissions and forward the link to engineering researchers and scientists you know, as well as faculty, grad students, and other stakeholders interested in the future of engineering research.
Ideas submitted by January 26, 2023 will receive full consideration.

Staying connected in the tissue engineering community
VIRTUAL WEBINAR SERIES
The TERMIS-AM Membership Committee has formulated a list of webinars being conducted in the region.
Communication and connectivity within the tissue engineering community are critical objectives of TERMIS. Staying connected and up to date with research in the field is more important now than ever before. In addition to bringing you TERMIS chapter meetings, World Congress, and TWIG seminars, we have curated a list of recurring virtual webinar series from other institutions in the region in diverse topics relevant to tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. If you are hosting a recurring virtual seminar series that you would like to add to the list, please contact matthew.wolf@nih.gov.
