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

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 ...

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

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

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, ...

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 ...

Many patients suffering from such debilitating conditions as disc degeneration have benefitted from spinal stabilization procedures, which aim to alleviate pain while facilitating movement. But in ...
