Join in the healthcare conversation on SIRIUSXM Channel 111 - the Wharton business channel! A panel of experts will discuss the future of regenerative medicine.
Our next radio session, The Future of Regenerative Medicine, will be Tuesday, February 9th from 12:00pm to 1:00pm EST.
Summary:
Regenerative medicine is a new and expanding area that aims to replace lost or damaged tissues in the human body through either cellular transplantation or endogenous repair. This field has sales in excess of $18 billion and is expected to grow at a 23% compound annual growth rate over the next 4-5 years. Hear from experts in 3 areas of tissue regeneration – kidney, heart, and appendages how these types of tissues are being developed and what some of the hurdles are for growing this market.

Panelists:

Quaggin's research program focuses on genetic pathways required to establish and maintain the integrity of microvascular beds including the glomerular filtration barrier – a highly selective filter that separates the blood from the urinary space. To understand the pathways and interactions between perivascular cells and the endothelium, her research team has developed a number of genetic models that permit cell and time-specific manipulation of gene expression.
