I'll be that guy and ask: ten years later, are there new treatments based on that field that we didn't have at that time ?

Probably not. Most radically novel technological approaches to problems fail, but as the range of new tools and techniques available expand, their possible combinations increase exponentially. Most will still fail, but hopefully many of them won’t just as with startups.

On that specific field? No because there are many steps along the way that we haven't solved yet, but it's getting there, especially for heart tissue regeneration.
