A series of converging advances in bio-implant technology, from brain-spine interfaces to lab-grown spinal tissue, is ...

In a petri dish at Northwestern University, researchers grow organoids modeled on the human spinal cord: simplified, lab-made ...

Neurites include axons, which are often severed during spinal cord injuries. When axons are cut, communication between ...

Researchers have built a realistic human mini spinal cord in the lab and used it to simulate traumatic injury. The model reproduced key damage seen in real spinal cord injuries, including inflammation ...

Complex 3D structures of cells called organoids could be used to test treatments for spinal-cord damage that can lead to ...

Researchers from RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences have developed a novel implant that delivers tiny growth-promoting particles directly to injured nerve cells, helping them to regrow ...

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

Researchers uncover dynamic “dancing” molecules in spinal cord organoids, offering insights into neural development and ...

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 ...

Scientists at Cedars-Sinai have uncovered a surprising repair system in the spinal cord that could open new doors for treating paralysis, stroke, and diseases like multiple sclerosis. They found that ...

Scientists have taken a major step toward treating spinal cord injuries that cause paralysis. In lab dishes, researchers at Northwestern University grew tiny organoids of the human spinal cord. Then, ...
