Regenerative Hepatology: Unlocking Liver Regeneration with Stem Cells

In this first deep dive, Vallier discusses the current state of liver regeneration research. He explores how pluripotent stem cells can generate hepatocytes and biliary cells, and describes how organoids integrate into tissues whilst providing new insights into liver disease.
