Regenerative Medicine: From Mice to Men
Scientific Editors: Estelle Gauda and Joel Glover

"Efforts to build on the knowledge gained through stem cell research, and eventually reach the goal of providing effective and safe therapies through the use of stem cell interventions, require the resolution of many challenges. Research in stem cell biology and regenerative medicine covers a broad spectrum of basic and translational studies, in which progress is slow but steady and the use of animals has been and remains paramount.."
