Regeneration, i.e. the replacement of lost body parts by new
outgrowths or by remodelling existing tissues, has been studied for
centuries. However, in recent years important developments took
place in this field too, owing to new soph isticated techniques and
to novel theoretical concepts. Advances in Molecular Genetics,
Biochemistry, Cell and Neurobiology, Immunology, to mention a few
of them, are the main causes of this resurgence of interest in
regeneration. As a consequence, more and more meetings and
pUblications are devoted, either exclusively or for a large part,
to basic and applied research of regenerative processes.
"Regeneration ists" scattered in laboratories allover the world and
accus tomed to know each other through exchange of reprints - occa
sionally an encounter in a large conference - tend now to form
small groups, even societies and to institutionalize their
meetings. Although the critical mass of scientists involved in
regeneration research does not seem yet to be reached, for an
autonomous development of this sector, regular and frequent
meetings of experts appear useful, even necessary. Such a meeting
was convened in Saronis, near Athens, Greece, from 19 to 23
September 1988 and sponsored by the NATO Science Committee and the
University of Athens. The present volume contains the contributions
to this Advanced Research Workshop on "Recent Trends in
Regeneration Research". About 50 biologists from different
countries, either mem bers of the Alliance or outside it (U.R.S.S.,
India, Egypt, Switzerland, Sweden) took part, mostly as invited
speakers.
