Breakthroughs don’t usually come in a “Eureka!” moment. Rather, they typically represent the result of years of dedication, perseverance and hard work. We celebrate the MDI Biological Laboratory’s contributions to the biomedical sciences in our flagship news magazine, Breaking Through, whose goal is to keep donors, friends and alumni informed of the incremental achievements that are contributing to a revolution in human health and well being. Breaking Through introduces the new ideas and remarkable people that have made the MDI Biological Laboratory a world leader in regenerative medicine research and a catalyst for the transition to a modern Maine economy based on knowledge and innovation.
