Innovative new approach gives hope for potential new treatments for spinal cord injury
Spinal cord neurons process signals differently in both sexes, research finds, giving hope for more personalised treatment
Neuro-Cells, which uses regenerative stem cell technology, has progressed into Phase II clinical trials
As the Foundation marks its milestone anniversary, we reflect on its role in moving SCI from the ‘graveyard of neuroscience’ to a cure now being in sight
Researchers have successfully stabilised an enzyme able to degrade scar tissue from SCI and promote tissue regeneration
The grants are the first to be made jointly by the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation with the International Spinal Research Trust
Chronic pain was found to exacerbate the impact of injury even further
If successful animal studies translate into patients, NVG-291 could be set to redefine the treatment of spinal cord injury
Keio University hailed the implant of cells as a 'huge step forward' in the quest to cure paralysis
Groundbreaking work will see the development of a biomaterial bridge to help regrow nerve fibres, giving new hope to people living with spinal cord injury (SCI). A key challenge in treating traumatic spinal cord injury SCI is repairing the gap that is formed when the spine is broken. This gap, typically a few centimetres wide, [...]
