This study develops a hydrogel scaffold with surface chemistry that promotes axon outgrowth and hindlimb recovery in spinal cord injury models.

This study shows that a cell-containing biomaterial scaffold promotes axon regeneration and spinal circuit reorganization, enhancing motor function recovery when combined with epidural electrical stimulation after spinal transection.

This study shows that a combinatorial biomaterials strategy with rapamycin and Schwann cells improves functional recovery and reduces fibrosis in rat spinal cord injury.
