Exploring the promise of regenerative medicine: Innovations, challenges, and future impact

The latest Nature Index supplement, on regenerative-medicine research, was launched in September, and looks at the breakthroughs that could transform how we treat chronic and life-threatening diseases in the future.
Cell therapy, for example, has the potential to transform the body’s most versatile cells into viable therapies for immune diseases, including diabetes.
But major challenges remain, such as overcoming immune rejection and ensuring that new therapies are developed using more inclusive data sets.
In this supplement:
- “Remarkably encouraging” stem-cell treatments for autoimmune diseases are entering a new phase – but can researchers solve the immune-suppression puzzle?
- Competition is heating up in the regenerative-medicine ranks, with the United States in the lead and China posing strong competition.
- The lack of female researchers and participants in regenerative-medicine research holds everyone back – here’s how to address it, says regenerative-medicine scientist Doris Taylor.
It also includes “branded content” articles, created for partner organisations by our Nature Custom Media team.
- Exploring the potential of regenerative medicine
- Regenerative promise for complex medical conditions
- A regenerative approach for treating diabetes?
There are also rankings of the top institutions and countries/territories for regenerative-medicine research in the Nature Index, as well as articles from partners.
