Scientists created a model of the human pain pathway in a dish by connecting four separate brain organoids. The feat should help them understand sensory disorders like those affecting pain perception.
A Cedars-Sinai study has identified a previously unknown role for astrocyte cells in how the brain responds to damage and ...
An experimental cancer drug can regenerate damaged nerves following spinal trauma in mice and rats. The corresponding report was published in Clinical and Translational Medicine. Spinal cord injury ...
In a new clinical study, researchers from the Texas Biomedical Device Center (TxBDC) at The University of Texas at Dallas demonstrated unprecedented rates of recovery for spinal cord injuries. In this ...
Now, for the first time, scientists have discovered the complete skin-to-brain neural circuit specifically for cool temperature sensory processing. In their mice study, the researchers found that this ...
Timed release of therapeutic molecules from a soft nanofiber-hydrogel implant supports nerve regrowth and circuit repair after spinal injury, restoring movement and bladder control in preclinical ...
Your spinal cord runs all the way down from the base of the brain to the lower back. The spinal canal, which consists of tissues, cartilage, and bone, covers the spinal cord and is tasked with ...
Cedars-Sinai investigators have discovered a healing mechanism that could one day be harnessed to help treat patients with spinal cord injuries, stroke, and neurological conditions such as multiple ...
Researchers in New Zealand have demonstrated a minimally invasive technology that has effectively aided in restoring movement in paralyzed rats. This breakthrough could mean we're a big step closer to ...
In a new clinical study, researchers from the Texas Biomedical Device Center (TxBDC) at The University of Texas at Dallas demonstrated unprecedented rates of recovery for spinal cord injuries. In this ...
