Wounded troops may soon be able to regrow muscle, bone and tissue, and essentially regenerate their lost limbs, military scientists say.
Researchers are making progress on synthetic grafts to start regrowing muscle as well as nerve, vascular and connective tissues, according to a release Tuesday from the Military Health System.
Regenerating the body’s extremities was a focus of a military medical conference that concluded Wednesday in Florida.
