"Using rats as well as an apparatus that simulates brain damage on human neurons, [Dr. Ping] Wu and her team of researchers identified a key molecular mechanisms through which implanted human neural stem cells aid recovery from traumatic axonal injury – which involves damage to the axons and dendrites which are the pathways for nerve communication in the brain."
Dr. Wu is a professor at the University of Texas Medical Branch.
