| Summary: | Regenerative biology and medicine is a rapidly developing field that can revolutionize medicine. It is a nexus of convergent science, drawing from chemistry, physics, mathematics and bioengineering. Foundations of Regenerative Biology and Medicine introduces the essentials of regenerative biology and medicine to advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students, as well as students and professionals outside the field who need (and want) an introduction to the subject. This relatively short ten chapter book can be read in one semester and delivers the essential framework to understand the biological aspects of different mechanisms of regeneration and the therapeutic strategies that have emerged from this biology.
