Regenerative medicine is a branch of medical science that involves the development and application of innovative therapies and techniques to repair, replace, or regenerate damaged, injured, or diseased tissues and organs within the human body. The goal of regenerative medicine is to restore normal function to these tissues or organs, ultimately improving the patient's health and quality of life. This field encompasses various approaches, including stem cell therapy, tissue engineering, gene therapy A technique that uses a gene or gene(s) to prevent, treat or cure a disease or disorder. Most gene therapies work by adding a healthy version of a gene to replace one that is defective or missing into the genome of particular cells. Some of these therapies use viral vectors to deliver genes into target cells. gene therapy A technique that uses a gene or gene(s) to prevent, treat or cure a disease or disorder.
