Introducing 'A regeneration retrospective', a miniseries on
@the_node in honour of the
@ISRB #ISRB2023 meeting. Each day I compare a #regeneration article from one of @Dev_journal's first issues with today's research.

In the first post, learn about a Danish couple that enjoyed long walks on the beach collecting flatworms and the work of Hayoung Lee & colleagues.

@steveroyle @the_node I don't think there was any standardisation! This is the only paper I've read with a French and English Abstract.

@amjeve @the_node fascinating! I did double-check and Uganda had English/Swahili as the main language (now, and back then), so no national requirement in this case.
