Regenerative medicine is transforming how we restore tissue function, leveraging advances in cell and molecular biology, biomaterials, and engineered microenvironments. While there have been notable advances and rapid progress over the past few decades, ongoing challenges persist in the technical development and effective translation of these advancements to clinical care. This perspective highlights clinically promising examples and critically assesses present challenges in translating tissue regenerative medicine therapies from the bench to the clinic. We further examine the evolving landscape of regenerative medicine by describing strategies to optimize the cellular microenvironment, the impact of patient demographics, and the use of artificial intelligence to shape the future of this field.
