The first organized stem cell culture model that resembles all three sections of the embryonic brain and spinal cord, and produces a full model of the early stages of the human central nervous system, ...

Cambridge scientists have grown miniature circuits in the lab that mimic how the brain and spinal cord connect, which underlies human movement. They used this model to show how damage to these ...

A team of researchers at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and College of Medicine have developed the first mouse model capable of reproducing the ischemic spinal cord injury ("ISCI") ...

The model took into account the curves and stretch created in the body above the lesion and sent that information to the rest of the body through the muscles, not the spinal cord. Even with a moderate ...

A photo of adult human neurons in a dish over a black background shows white splotches with thin strands connecting them and with a scale bar of 50 μm. The team tested thiorphan in neuronal cell ...

The University of Alabama at Birmingham Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) held a special event to recognize Michael Neville and Vicky Ott. The two have been participating in ...

Cambridge scientists have grown miniature circuits in the lab that mimic how the brain and spinal cord connect up, which underlies our movements. They used this model to show how damage to these ...
