American researchers, doctors might one day <em>glue</em> their patients’ bodily tears and injuries back together. As part of a BSF-funded project, researchers at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology and Boston Children’s Hospital have developed a hot-glue gun to repair torn human tissues. The gun warms the glue to a moderate temperature, reducing chances of adverse reactions.

This study, which “presents a message of hope to the families,” includes former BSF grantees Prof. Kyle E. Orwig (senior author) from University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, and Ben-Gurion University of the Negev professors and co-authors Eitan Lunenfeld and Mahmoud E. Huleihel – all three of whom collaborated on a four-year BSF Medicine grant on, “Preservation of Male Fertility,” in 2011.
