The Reality of Stem Cell Research
video-player Lawrence Goldstein PhD Medical Background Spinal cord injury (SCI) resulting from accidents, gunshots or other traumas is a tragedy that affects hundreds of thousands of people of all ages. Vehicular accidents cause about 44% of these injuries. Nearly one-quarter … Continue reading

Spinal Cord Injury—Innovation Measured in Decades, Not Headlines
This blog column is about how short-sighted we have become about medical innovation–where it comes from, when it becomes noteworthy and the reality that headlines drive our perception rather than the long, hard work of discovery. Understandably, the column has … Continue reading
