As we get older, our cells gradually lose the ability to heal themselves.

In a recent article published in the Journal of Science Advances, it tells how researchers have developed a hydrogel that holds muscle stem cells, and by injecting this near the site of a muscle injury they can get to work repairing it.

The team says the technique could be effective at treating injuries in the elderly.
