Spinal Cord Injury (SCI): Publications and Resources

Summary: These publications feature news about spinal cord injuries (SCI) and their treatments, from cutting-edge research to practical recovery tips, and shows up in all sorts of places like medical journals, health magazines, and even everyday newspapers. You'll find topics like new rehab techniques, breakthrough therapies such as stem cell treatments, and stories about how people adapt after an injury. These publications dig into both the science - think studies on nerve regeneration - and real-life experiences, like how someone regained movement years later. They're packed with useful info that can shed light on what's possible, spark hope with the latest advancements, and offer practical insights for anyone curious about SCI, especially those navigating life with a disability or aging-related challenges.
