It has been nearly 18 years since the researchers and scientists of the international Human Genome Project first mapped our genetic blueprint. Their breakthrough efforts continue to enable numerous advances in the ways we can treat and prevent various diseases and conditions. That’s because the Human Genome master roadmap allows us to better understand the […]

How Cellular Treatments Can Repair Muscle Tissue
Although it’s common to think of muscle sprains and tears happening only to athletes, they can also occur on the job or in the home.
