Spinal cord injuries (SCIs) can temporarily or permanently disrupt critical functions, from sensation to breathing, contributing to substantial patient morbidities that are often lifelong. Researchers ...
Researchers at the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences explored the regenerative mechanisms behind spinal cord injury (SCI) repair. By constructing ...
CHICAGO — Scientists say they've found a promising experimental treatment to repair the spinal cord after a severe injury. It could also work in people who have been paralyzed. The nanotechnology uses ...
As spine leaders look ahead to 2026, enthusiasm around regenerative medicine and neuromodulation continues to build. But much of the conversation still flattens a field that is far more complex than ...
A research team at RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences has developed a 3-D printed implant to deliver electrical stimulation to injured areas of the spinal cord offering a potential new ...
In the center of your body’s repair system are tiny cells with mighty power—pericytes. These small but active cells surround the smallest blood vessels and help maintain and heal tissues. Now, new ...
A research team at RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences has developed a new implant that conveys electrical signals and may have the potential to encourage nerve cell (neuron) repair after ...
Spinal cord injury is a devastating condition with serious, life altering implications for patients and their families. Researchers explore promising new stem cell strategies to replace cells, repair ...
Zebrafish are members of a rarefied group of vertebrates capable of fully healing a severed spinal cord. Now, a new study from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis using a zebrafish ...
