Timeline: Regrowing the body

Cassandra Willyard

Nature, 2016, vol. 540, issue 7632, S50-S51

Abstract: For centuries, scientists have been captivated by the phenomenal feats of regeneration found in nature. Despite decades of research, attempts to replace or repair parts of the human body have met with only modest success. Fresh understanding of organ formation coupled with new technologies may help to unlock long-sought cures.
