Why do some cells and tissues regenerate and others cannot? Why are humans different than salamanders or starfish when we lose a limb? Why can’t we regrow organs and no longer depend on donor tissues? We are slowly finding answers to these age-old questions and discovering how to harness an innate capability within the human body to repair and regenerate.

Our excitement in this field has driven us to invest in several breakthrough startups that are building kidneys using biologic scaffolds (Iviva), restoring tissue/organ function (Dimension Inx), and regrowing limbs (Morphoceuticals). Check out our latest breakthrough science predictions and thinking on the future of regenerative medicine:
