Triggering the regeneration and tissue repair programs.
In early October 2008, researchers from diverse backgrounds gathered at an EMBO conference entitled 'The Molecular and Cellular Basis of Regeneration and Tissue Repair' to discuss the basic biology of regeneration. Topics included cell plasticity in regenerative and developmental contexts, and the link between wound healing and regeneration. The meeting also highlighted the progress made in identifying the molecular networks that underlie regeneration in a variety of model systems.
