TED: How we could teach our bodies to heal faster | Kaitlyn Sadtler

The video discusses the potential of using the immune system to heal wounds and regenerate tissues faster, similar to how some organisms can regrow body parts. The speaker, an immunologist, explores how materials can instruct the immune system to aid in tissue regeneration, focusing on the role of helper T cells. The video also highlights the future possibilities of regenerative medicine, such as scar-proof band-aids and wound-healing vaccines.
