TL;DR Summary

Researchers have developed an injectable tissue prosthesis composed of a biocompatible hydrogel with bidirectional electrical conduction, allowing for closed-loop robot-assisted rehabilitation. The prosthesis, which can be injected onto rough, narrow, or deep tissue surfaces, has been successfully demonstrated in rats with severe muscle injury, leading to accelerated tissue repair. This breakthrough could have significant implications for the field of rehabilitation and tissue repair.
