Scientists regenerate neurons that restore walking in mice after paralysis from spinal cord injury::In a new study in mice, a team of researchers from UCLA, the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, and Harvard University have uncovered a crucial component for restoring functional activity after spinal cord injury. The neuroscientists have shown that re-growing specific neurons back to their natural target regions led to recovery, while random regrowth was not effective.

What I've learned this means in practical terms is, "Wow! We are really good at healing mice!"
Well that’s great news for all the mice who can afford the treatment.
Yeah this treatment is only going to benefit the top 1% of mice in the end
I wonder if Basil would be rich enough…
*"We're really good at injuring and then healing mice!"
