This study investigates how polytraumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) combined with spared nerve injury (SNI) exacerbates maladaptive plasticity in spinal motor systems through increased GluA1 expression and AMPAR currents.

This paper develops a machine learning-based behavioral phenotyping approach to quantify functional recovery in mice with tibia fractures, finding that pin stabilization improves recovery and that recovery patterns vary over time.

This study shows that ultrafine-grained stainless steel implants reduce early Staphylococcus aureus biofilm formation in vitro and in mouse models.

The paper describes best practices for western blot experiments and introduces blotRig, a tool to improve rigor and reproducibility in quantitative analysis.
