Principles of Regenerative Medicine, Third Edition,
details the technologies and advances applied in recent years to
strategies for healing and generating tissue. Contributions from a
stellar cast of researchers cover the biological and molecular basis of
regenerative medicine, highlighting stem cells, wound healing and cell
and tissue development. Advances in cell and tissue therapy, including
replacement of tissues and organs damaged by disease and previously
untreatable conditions, such as diabetes, heart disease, liver disease
and renal failure are also incorporated to provide a view to the future
and framework for additional studies.
- Comprehensively covers
the interdisciplinary field of regenerative medicine with contributions
from leaders in tissue engineering, cell and developmental biology,
biomaterials sciences, nanotechnology, physics, chemistry,
bioengineering and surgery
- Includes new chapters devoted to iPS
cells and other alternative sources for generating stem cells as written
by the scientists who made the breakthroughs
- Edited by a world-renowned team to present a complete story of the development and promise of regenerative medicine
