BIOL 458
Stem Cells and Regeneration Biology
A survey of research literature in regeneration biology and stem cells across the organismal, tissue, and molecular levels. Our focus is on understanding tissue regeneration through model organism studies (invertebrates and vertebrates). Topics include stem cells, wound healing, organogenesis, and age dependent-regeneration, with discussions of applicability towards promoting human regenerative repair
