The importance of curb appeal for a residential building is obvious – the better the exterior looks, the quicker it will sell. It’s an age-old equation that has secured millions of homeowners the best deals, which is why there’s an emphasis on making the outdoor area of a house as eye-catching as possible.

Bumps and bruises go away. Aches and pains subside. Broken bones heal. But nerve damage? That can be trickier to repair. And sometimes downright impossible. Thankfully, there may be a solution on the way. A new hydrogel that may be capable of repairing nerve damage once and for all. Futurism explains: “A team of doctors and engineers have developed a new hydrogel that they say might be able to repair nerve damage more quickly and reliably than any other methods.
