Scientists watch the brain’s lining heal after a head injury | National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke – NINDS | National Institutes of Health (NIH) | 16 April 2018
Excerpt / Quote:
“The lining of the brain, with help from the immune system, has a remarkable ability to put itself back together again after injury,” said Dorian McGavern, Ph.D., scientist at the NIH’s National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke* and the senior author of the study published in Nature Immunology. “As we learn more about all the cells involved in the repair process, we may be able to identify potential targets for therapy that lead to better outcomes for patients.”
