## ABOUT

Dr. Carla Mazzeo founded and directed the first EV Core Facility at Boston University, which she established in 2020, and has set up SAFE✓™ (Standards and Assessment for Exosomes) reference laboratories at Boston University and King’s College London.

Her leadership spans academic research, commercial R&D, and clinical investigation at the same time. That combination gives her a firsthand understanding of the operational, regulatory, and quality challenges that EV manufacturers and clinical practitioners face, and positions her to define the standards the industry requires.

## EXPERIENCE

Dr. Mazzeo earned her PhD in Biochemistry. Her doctoral work at the Autonomous University of Madrid focused on the role of multivesicular bodies (MVBs) in T and B lymphocyte exosome secretion, establishing foundational understanding of how EVs are produced at the cellular level. She also completed post-graduate training at MIT in Drug and Medical Device Development.

In 2015 she made a landmark discovery, the first demonstration that eosinophils secrete exosomes and that these vesicles play a direct role in asthma pathogenesis. The work was published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology and later confirmed by independent research groups worldwide.

She is a co-author of MISEV2023, the 382-author global consensus document that defines the international standard for EV research. Her record includes more than 40 peer-reviewed publications in Nature, Science, the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, and other high-impact journals, with 5,619 Google Scholar citations.

Prior to founding SAFE✓™, Carla Mazzeo served for three years as Director of Research and Development at a bioregenerative center in New York dedicated to stem cells and extracellular vesicles, one of the few therapeutic, medical device, and cosmetic EV facilities of its kind in the United States. Concurrent with her directorship of the EV Core Facility at Boston University, she led product development, conducted a systematic characterization and comparison study of commercial exosome products carried out at Boston University and Harvard Medical School, and served as principal investigator of a published clinical study on the combined effects of exosomes and microneedling (2024).

Hands-on training

## Hands-on medical training courses.

Build real clinical skills the hands-on way. You learn by doing it. You work with live patients. And the clinicians who teach you are still in practice.

01

### Every course, by discipline.

The catalog

Every course is private. Every course is hands-on. It’s real training. You work on live consenting patients. And you do all of it under a practicing instructor.

Important information

## Read this before you book.

Six short notes on what the training is and is not. Open a heading to read it.

Education, not medical advice

Regen Med Academy provides education and training for licensed healthcare providers. Everything on this site is for educational purposes only. It is not medical advice, not a treatment recommendation, and not an offer to treat. Providers are responsible for practicing within the scope of their own license and their own state law.

Where a course can run

Courses are taught only in states where the modality is legal for the license you hold. State law in this field changes, sometimes more than once a year. Our reading of each state, with its sources and the date we checked, is on the [rules by state page](/regenerative-medicine-laws-by-state/). It is a starting point, not legal advice. It is your responsibility to confirm the modality is legal in your state for your license. Do that before you book. The authority on your own scope is your licensing board, not us. State medical board contact details are published by the [Federation of State Medical Boards](https://www.fsmb.org/contact-a-state-medical-board/).

Training on live patients

Procedures performed during training are performed on consenting patients, by licensed providers, under supervision. Participation is voluntary and outcomes vary.

Products and modalities

Some products and modalities discussed in these courses are not FDA approved or cleared for the uses described. Regen Med Academy does not manufacture, sell or endorse any product, and does not approve or clear any product. The FDA publishes guidance for patients and providers on [regenerative medicine therapies](https://www.fda.gov/vaccines-blood-biologics/consumers-biologics/important-patient-and-consumer-information-about-regenerative-medicine-therapies).

What a certificate is, and is not

Regen Med Academy does not offer CMEs, credit hours or accreditation of any kind. What you receive is a Certificate of Completion. It records that you attended and performed the procedures under supervision. It is not a license, not a board certification, and it does not expand your scope of practice.

Coverage is yours to arrange

You are responsible for your own malpractice coverage. We will help you work out what to ask your carrier, and we recommend getting the answer in writing. Regen Med Academy does not provide, arrange or extend coverage to trainees, and nothing on this page is legal advice or an assurance of coverage.
