Cardiac regeneration is a research area focused on studying and developing therapies to repair or replace damaged heart tissue in individuals with heart disease or injury. This field seeks to harness the body's natural regenerative capabilities to stimulate the growth of new heart cells and improve heart function. Techniques being explored include stem cell therapy, tissue engineering, and other regenerative medicine approaches to promote healing and regeneration of the heart muscle. The ultimate goal of cardiac regeneration research is to develop new treatments that can improve outcomes for patients with heart disease and reduce the need for heart transplants.
