NeuroStimSpinal

A Step Forward To Spinal Cord Injury Repair Using Innovative Stimulated Nanoengineered Scaffolds

NeuroStimSpinal aims at developing an implantable biomaterial that will allow the patients with spinal cord injury to recover the mobility. This biomaterial will be reflected as a scaffold, that is composed by graphene-based material (GBM) in combination with adipose derived decellularized tissue (adECM), coupled with a wireless electrical stimulation device. The long-term vision of the project is to opening the door for finding a solution with this biomaterial.
