BS Regenerative Bioscience at University of Georgia

Programme overview

Regenerative bioscience is a field of study that aims to develop new ways to replace, repair, or regenerate human and animal cells, tissues, or organs from a pathologic/diseased condition. In cases of severe injury or disease (e.g., heart disease, stroke, cancer, etc.), the endogenous repair mechanisms of the body are limited and often there remains no effective treatments.
