Training for a cellular battle against diabetes
The need for better options in diabetes care inspires Kyle Knofczynski, a student in the Regenerative Sciences Ph.D. track at the Mayo Clinic Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences. Standard insulin replacement therapy has been a lifeline for many people with diabetes, but it doesn’t always sufficiently control blood glucose (sugar). So Kyle dared to dream […]

Mayo Clinic trains a new class of regenerative sciences students
Mayo Clinic has selected five new students for one of the first-ever doctoral tracks in regenerative sciences. This is the third class admitted since the doctoral program began in 2020. Regenerative medicine and biotherapeutics are so new that very few academic medical centers have curricula to train the next generation of physicians and scientists to […]

Training scientists to rebuild health
Experts predict that regenerative medicine will transform clinical practice. A conservative estimate is that 20% of future medical and surgical solutions will involve regenerative solutions. Regenerative medicine shifts the focus of medicine from fighting disease to rebuilding health. Regenerative medicine could improve human health span — the number of disease-free years — so a person’s […]
