Regenerating bone tissue through stem cells can now be easier and more precise. Researchers at University of Rochester New York have developed a technique to keep the stem cells from moving away resulting in faster and better tissue regeneration. When stem cells are used to regenerate bone tissue a number of them move away from the repair site that disrupts the healing process. The new technique is encasing the stem cells in polymers that attract water and disappear when their work is done. The technique is similar to what has already been used to repair other types of tissue including
