Une médecine nouvelle s'annonce, elle ne sera plus réparatrice ou palliative mais saura véritablement régénérer les tissus lésés en y introduisant des cellules embryonnaires

Explanation:
"A new kind of medicine is coming. It won't repair tissues or relieve pain. Instead, it will actually regenerate damaged tissues by injecting embryo cells into them."

The separation into three sentences fixes the comma-splice in the French ("s'annonce, elle ne sera...") and also puts the emphasis where it belongs, i.e., on the act of regeneration and the contrast with earlier medicine. (For a more general audience, you could replace "regenerate" with "regrow.")

Explanation:
A new kind of medicine is on the horizon; a form of medicine which will not only be cut and patch but which is capable of actually regenerating damaged tissue through the introduction of embryonic cells.


Just a suggestion. Hope you like it. You might want to revise the punctuation.
