A lay overview of the work being done on regenerative medicine at University of Pittsburgh was presented at TED by one of the researchers, and this story isn't out of line with that.

It seems that the length of finger the guy lost was overstated by many news outlets, and the actual amount of healing would not be outside the realms of what could be reasonably expected biologically.
