Summary This review of current methodological tools and experimental approaches used by leading translational researchers, discusses the uses of regenerative medicine for different disease treatment areas, including cardiovascular disease, muscle regeneration and regeneration of the bone and skin. Pedagogically, it concentrates on the latest knowledge, laboratory techniques and experimental approaches used by research leaders in the field. It promotes cross-disciplinary communication between the sub-specialties of medicine, but remains unified in theme by emphasising recent innovations, critical barriers to progress, the new tools that are being used to overcome them and specific areas of research that require additional study to advance the field as a whole
