> After men have surgery to remove a cancerous prostate gland, up to 80 percent

of them will lose the ability to have an erection because of damage to a

> New research from Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine shows

the damaged nerve can be regenerated more quickly with a protein called sonic

hedgehog delivered via a nanofiber gel.
