Research on regeneration frequently uses young model systems. However, challenges to regenerate e.g. after an injury are found in compromised patient settings, usually different from many of the model systems used. To steer regeneration even in such compromised patient settings, it is essential to understand how systemic challenges like increased age, metabolic challenges or chronic... Free and open to public -
