I have found regenerative bioscience both fascinating and innovative in ways that it is able to bring new solutions to problems that have been deemed incurable or impossible. My first introduction to regenerative bioscience was in Dr. Kinder’s RBIO 2010, Introduction to Regenerative Bioscience, and Dr. West’s ADSC 3100, Animal Biotechnology. Both of these courses…

I feel that regenerative bioscience is important because it represents the future of medicine. The ability to use the body’s natural healing processes to apply therapies for treating conditions that are currently incurable is the next step in medicine. The potential of regenerative bioscience could allow science to solve issues that could have never been…

Christina is a Neuroscience Ph.D Student in the Roberts-Galbraith Lab. Her current research focuses on understanding how neuropeptides influence stem cell function and regeneration utilizing an animal capable of robust regeneration called the planarian. Christina was awarded the ARCS scholarship after submitting a two-phase application. The first phase consisted of two letters of recommendation, a…

“My first true introduction to regenerative bioscience was Dr. Holly Kinder’s class, Introduction to Regenerative Bioscience. I previously knew in high school that I was interested in this particular domain of science and medicine, but I did not know that the University of Georgia would provide such amazing coursework to explore this area. Following this…

“I think that regenerative bioscience is very important especially in the field of medicine. Currently we know so much more about diseases and medicine then ever before and a lot of that is due to the progress and discoveries that have been made from the regenerative bioscience field. We potentially have the possibility to cure…

“My fascination with the relationship between environmental and human health began while studying the female reproductive system in my high school anatomy class. Here, I encountered a nesting doll-like diagram of a pregnant woman that illustrated how environmental exposures are intergenerational and can harm not only the mother’s health, but also that of her child…

“My first exposure to regenerative bioscience was during a 4-H program. We visited the UGA Vet School and saw ongoing research using swine and stem cells to cure head trauma. It was on this trip that I was introduced to the regenerative bioscience major. Two years later, I would remember this major and apply for…
