For over three decades, students and researchers have maintained a dynamic and multifaceted research initiative dedicated to studying the aftereffects of spinal cord injury (SCI) and exploring approaches for restoration and functional rehabilitation.
Our interdisciplinary team leverages modern breakthroughs in stem cell therapy, movement and breathing physiology, genetic treatments, rehabilitation methods, and drug-based solutions to pioneer more efficient therapies for both recent and long-term spinal cord injuries.
Additional research efforts target traumatic brain injuries, emphasizing ways to reduce secondary damage and create treatments that recover mental abilities. Our investigations cover the full range of injury severity, from minor concussions to major trauma, with special attention to repeated head injuries. A key area of exploration involves understanding how young brains react to trauma. These studies aim to create both medicinal and therapeutic approaches to reduce harm and recover capabilities.
