Peripheral Nerve Regeneration: Overcoming Challenges brings together the most recent and relevant advances in the field of peripheral nerve regeneration. The book takes a translational approach, exploring aspects ranging from fundamental research to the clinical and surgical application of new therapies associated with peripheral nerve regeneration. The chapters are grouped into sections: basic principles of research, followed by cellular and molecular mechanisms, innovative biomaterials and tissue engineering, cell-based therapies, and finally medial, medicinal and conservative approaches. Chapters are authored by leaders in the field for researchers, as well as doctors and surgeons dedicated to the field of regenerative medicine.

Dr. Rui Damasio Alvites, a researcher at the University of Porto's Institute of Sciences, Technologies, and Agroenvironment, excels in Regenerative Medicine and Veterinary Sciences. He obtained his PhD in Veterinary Sciences from the Abel Salazar Institute of Biomedical Sciences, University of Porto, in 2021, preceded by a Master's in Veterinary Medicine in 2015. He serves as a Junior member of the European Society for the Study of Peripheral Nerve Repair and Regeneration Board and is an External Collaborator at the Abel Salazar Institute. Additionally, he's a Professor at Cooperativa de Ensino Superior Politécnico e Universitário. His research primarily focuses on regenerative therapies for Peripheral Nerve regeneration, utilizing mesenchymal stem cells and biomaterials, aligned with a One Health perspective. Dr. Alvites has participated in numerous research projects from 2017 to 2023 and has been honored with multiple awards for his outstanding contributions. His expertise spans Veterinary Medicine, Regenerative Medicine, Olfaction, Stem Cells, Peripheral Nerve Injury, and Biomaterials, making him a distinguished figure in the field.
