THE TECHNOLOGY

On a mission to change how wounds heal.

The future of healing is already inside us.

The human body knows how to heal. KAUST researchers are working on helping it do it better.

Invivo is a regenerative medicine technology built on KAUST intellectual property. It uses living cells to repair tissue, reduce inflammation and drive healing from within - rather than managing damage at the surface. The technology is in active proof-of-concept trials.

If it advances as the science suggests, it could change how medicine approaches tissue repair, post-surgical recovery and healthy ageing - for patients everywhere.

Technology Mission

MISSION IN MOTION

From Injury to Regeneration

See how Invivo harnesses the body's own living cells to repair tissue, reduce inflammation and unlock a new future for regenerative medicine.

IMPACT

Creating Impact
Where It Matters Most

01

Healing from within

Rather than managing the surface of a wound, Invivo targets the underlying biology of tissue repair - enabling more complete, more lasting recovery.

02

Living cell technology

By harnessing the body’s own regenerative mechanisms, Invivo drives healing in ways that synthetic treatments cannot replicate.

03

Broad clinical potential

The technology has potential applications across wound care, post-surgical recovery, and age-related tissue conditions - some of the most persistent and costly challenges in modern healthcare.

04

KAUST IP in clinical translation

Built on KAUST intellectual property and advancing through early-stage trials, Invivo is the journey from fundamental science to therapies that change lives.
