The back supports the body’s weight and allows for flexible movement while protecting vital organs and nerve structures. It comprises the spine, nerves, and other crucial elements. Problems with the ...

The spinal cord is a long bundle of nerves and cells that extends from the lower portion of the brain to the lower back. Spinal cord functions include carrying signals between the brain and the rest ...

Northwestern University scientists have developed the most advanced organoid model for human spinal cord injury to date. In a new study published in Nature Biomedical Engineering, the research team ...

Researchers develop a 3D-printed, RNA-activated implant that silences the PTEN gene to promote nerve regrowth after spinal ...

Several studies have demonstrated that SPIO-labeled stem cells migrate into a brain or spinal cord lesion after transplantation; MRI detection was confirmed by histological analysis with iron staining ...

A computational model mechanistically links spinal circuit reorganization to recovered locomotion after incomplete spinal cord injury.

Northwestern University scientists have developed the most advanced organoid model for human spinal cord injury to date. In a new study, the research team used lab-grown human spinal cord organoids - ...
