STEM CELLS AND REGENERATIVE BIOLOGY

Fifth talk in the series

The replacement of missing cells, largely mediated by the action of  
stem cells, occurs naturally as an integral part of normal adult life  
and in response to injury.  This lecture series will highlight topics  
in regenerative biology ranging from the biology of stem cells in  
cell replacement to regenerative tissue engineering.
