About Jeroen van den Beucken

Jeroen van den Beucken is a medical biologist interested in interactions between cells/tissues and biomaterials. For his research, he predominantly focuses on bone regeneration and the initiation of bone formation. His expertise covers materials science, cell culture models, animal bone defect models, and clinical translation. Of particular interest to him are cell-cell interactions (e.g. stem cells with other cell types, such as immune and cancer cells) that govern healthy tissue formation or pathological processes. Jeroen has published >250 peer-reviewed research papers and (co-)supervised >25 PhD-students to successful completion. Jeroen further has strong research collaborations at a global level to combine efforts dedicated to either fundamental questions on bone physiology or translational work on bone regenerative biomaterials. Jeroen is a member of the TERMIS Editorial Committee and the scientific societies NBTE (Dutch), ESB, and TERMIS, and serves as a frequent reviewer for scientific organizations and journals.
