The Why Science Initiative
We explore the reasons why life science researchers and industry professionals are driven to do the work they do and why the general public should understand and care about their discoveries and breakthroughs. Sponsored by Quansys Bio with Kyle Valgardson as the host.
The Why Science Initiative
Episode 4- Regenerative Biology with Dr. Ashley Seifert
In this episode of the Why Science Initiative, we are joined by Dr. Ashley Seifert, a regenerative Biology wizard with the University of Kentucky. Dr. Seifert describes the field of regenerative biology as the study of how organisms can not only heal wounds but regenerate true tissues and even limbs. Throughout the episode, we explore the potential applications of regenerative biology and share stories of animals like spiny mice and the mechanics of how they regenerate tissue.
This episode is great as there is you will get a better understanding of regenerative biology, the most accurate sci-fi depiction of some of these processes, and the potential therapeutic applications of discoveries in this field. Join us for this journey discussing some fascinating evolution and as always please subscribe to be notified of future episodes.
