TECH & INNOVATIONUS Army veteran Richard Neider has been wheelchair-bound for almost a decade until he was given another chance to walk again using a battery-powered exoskeleton. Check out this motorized machine that could help paralyzed individuals move again.
A research team from Michigan Medicine recently analyzed private insurance claims from over 9,000 adult individuals with traumatic spinal cord injury and over one million without the condition.
Researchers from Northwestern University have developed a new therapy that promotes "functional recovery" in mice with paralysis, a breakthrough that might be applicable to humans.
COVID-19 high-risk groups do not always mention spinal cord injury patients, but a new study suggests that these people are at more risk of getting infected because SCI causes immunosuppression in these patients.
A team of researchers developed a "designer" that signals protein and injects it into the mice's brains, activating their nerve cells to regenerate and share their recipe for making the said protein.
Researchers from the University of Washington developed a new treatment that will help people with spinal cord injury regain their hand and arm functionality.
Creating 3D Neural Circuits for Research, Implantation Any damage to the nervous system can be permanent and devastating. One of the issues is that neurons aren't really that great at regenerating.
