Regenerative bioscience is an area of research that is focused on developing cures for a broad range of devastating diseases and injuries with no known restorative treatments, such as stroke, brain tumors, muscle injury, infertility, and bone disease. This course will cover advancements in regenerative bioscience research in both pre-clinical and clinical settings, including research techniques, therapeutic strategies, challenges/ethical constraints, and future directions.

Fundamentals of biomedical imaging will address how major imaging modalities including x-ray, ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging can be utilized for both diagnostic and prognostic measures. Furthermore, how these modalities are employed in regenerative medicine to treat tissue abnormalities and disease states as well as measure the safety and efficacy of novel therapies will be addressed.

Integration of modern techniques in biotechnology with the problems confronting animal agriculture. Techniques used in the modification of domestic animals for higher quality products and improved production are emphasized. Included are topics covering the use of animals in human health and new products derived from animal resources.

Regenerative bioscience approaches to tissue repair and regeneration, including stem cell therapies, biomaterials, tissue engineering, gene therapies, and cell manufacturing approaches in regenerative medicine. Students will also learn about how novel devices, technologies, and diagnostic tools can enhance regenerative medicine strategies.

Students will incorporate knowledge in regenerative bioscience through a teaching experience in a course matched to the student's experience, education, and interests. The student is expected to meet regularly with instructor to discuss the teaching objectives and subject matter and to participate with a discussion or laboratory section.

Students will gain relevant skills and work experience by participating in a medical, veterinary, or bioscience industry internship.

Powerful and rapidly evolving genome engineering technologies have revolutionized basic and applied research, ranging from agriculture to biomedicine. This course will teach students about cutting-edging genome editing technologies in different organisms, focusing on the basic mechanisms, up-to-date techniques, emerging applications, ethical issues, and associated regulations.

Regenerative bioscience therapies and diagnostics, including cell therapies, biomaterials, biopharmaceuticals, gene therapies, and devices. In addition, the business of regenerative bioscience from concept development, pre-clinical and clinical testing, regulatory approval, and manufacturing will be covered. Students will learn about the key steps involved in bringing a product to market and how start-up companies are formed.

Faculty-supervised independent or collaborative inquiry into fundamental and applied problems within a discipline that requires students to gather, analyze, synthesize, and interpret data and to present results in writing and other relevant communication formats.
