A first-in-human trial shows the feasibility and safety of delivering placenta-derived stem cells during prenatal ...

Neurites include axons, which are often severed during spinal cord injuries. When axons are cut, communication between neurons is disrupted, leading to paralysis and loss of sensation below the 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 ...

A research group at the Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro has advanced polylaminin, a laminin-based biomaterial, from ...

Zebrafish have genetic characteristics that make it possible to rebuild neural networks after severe injuries.

Sitting for long periods of time often causes severe pain in our spine. This can lead to a serious problem, so Dr. Ashish ...

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 ...

In January 2026, a family trip to Colorado took an unexpected and devastating turn when 10-year-old Ellie Hanes, a fifth grader at Canyon Intermediate, suffered a severe spinal cord injury in a ski ...

The federal Health Department plans to slash insurance rebates for spinal cord stimulators after concluding there isn’t ...

A new model may help identify neurogenic bladder and other complications in patients with spinal cord injuries.

Organoids developed from human stem cells modeled spinal cord injuries, providing a powerful in vitro tool to evaluate ...

A new risk prediction model shows good predictive value in identifying risk for neurogenic bladder (NB) after spinal cord injury (SCI) and guiding clinical interventions, according to a study ...
