The Division of Translational Medicine in the Department of Medicine at NYU Langone Health is dedicated to bringing the fruits of its laboratory investigations to patients and the community.

We focus on a broad range of research and clinical interests that include rheumatic diseases, such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, as well as cancer, liver disease, and wound healing.

Our faculty are currently carrying out investigations in osteoarthritis from bench to bedside. We have identified a candidate formulation that promotes cartilage regeneration in osteoarthritic joints, which is in the early stages of preclinical and clinical testing. Other faculty members are working on developing novel wound healing agents for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers and innovative approaches to bone regeneration.
