Human organoids reveal how to reverse “irreversible” nerve damage

13 hours ago 10

Scientists at the University of Cambridge have created tiny lab-grown brain and spinal cord systems that mimic how movement signals travel through the human nervous system. Using this model, the team discovered that nerve damage once believed to be permanent may actually be reversible under certain conditions.

As the human body develops from an embryo into a fetus and eventually an infant, neurons form complex communication networks between the brain and spina...
