Discover the groundbreaking research on organoid models for spinal cord injury, promising new therapies for paralysis recovery.

Scientists at Northwestern University have built what they call the most advanced human spinal ...

A new human spinal cord organoid model replicates key injury responses, such as inflammation, cell loss, and scar formation.

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 ...

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

Spinal cord injury remains one of the most challenging neurological conditions to treat, largely because damage continues to worsen long after the initial trauma. Secondary injury processes—driven by ...

A 42-year-old construction worker sits across from me in clinic, MRI in hand, convinced he needs surgery. His primary care ...

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

Evanston, Ill.-based Northwestern University scientists have created the most advanced human spinal cord injury organoid model to date, enabling researchers to test regenerative therapies in lab-grown ...

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