Seems pretty dumb in our biological design to not be able to regenerate such a functional (and also easily breakable) part of our body.

idk why you're getting downvoted, I haven't seen any scientists or doctors refute the study or claim there's reason to believe this medicine won't work.

For the record I did not down vote but I can see how people dislike this kind of over enthusiasm for drugs still in trial. Many people got burned before by false hope :(

It's going to be in human trials, I don't know how long it was in animal trials.
