RegMedNet: Opportunities and challenges in cell therapies Future Science Group

    • Science

The goal of the field of regenerative medicine is to replace damaged or diseased tissue and thereby find cures for diseases that are currently untreatable. At present, two different approaches appear feasible: one is to stimulate the body's own cells to repair the tissue; and the other is to transplant new cells into the body, but both approaches are classed cell therapies. The drive to move regenerative medicine from the bench to clinic is currently at its strongest and on an international scale, which has resulted in many opportunities and challenges for the field.
