Medical Innovation LSU researchers have developed a syringe allowing physicians & veterinarians to better treat tendon injuries. By limiting the number of times stem cells are “touched,” the procedure has better chances of success. 📰 lsu.edu/blog/2024/04/11-stem… #WBTTW

Replying to @LSUResearch
@LSUResearch's new syringe temporarily stores adult #stemcells so they can be delivered and given to the patient from the same device. @lsuvetmed's Mandi Lopez says the invention can help treat tendon injuries more effectively. #Innovation lsu.edu/mediacenter/news/202…
