Lab-grown brain-spinal cord model shows ‘irreversible’ nerve damage may be reversed

Lab-grown brain-spinal cord model shows ‘irreversible’ nerve damage may be reversed

Cambridge scientists have grown miniature circuits in the lab that mimic how the brain and spinal cord connect up, which underlies our movements. They used this model to show how damage to these connections previously considered ‘irreversible’ could, in fact, be reversible As we develop and grow from embryo to fetus to infant, our nerve…
