Optogenetic Neuronal Stimulation Promotes Functional Recovery After Spinal Cord Injury

Optogenetic Neuronal Stimulation Promotes Functional Recovery After Spinal Cord Injury

Although spinal cord injury (SCI) is the main cause of disability worldwide, there is still no definite and effective treatment method for this condition. Our previous clinical trials confirmed that the increased excitability of the motor cortex was related to the functional prognosis of patients wi...
