  • Neurons within the spinal cord – October 2017
PhD student Jarred Griffin explains has sent this image of neurons within the spinal cord.

“Within the human spinal cord there are an astonishing 1 billion of these neurons. Like power lines, neurons conduct electrical signal from the brain to the body that convey important information regarding to movement and sensation. Within the Spinal Cord Injury Research Faciltiy at Auckland University we have created a genetic therapy that stimulates damaged neurons to regenerate after injury therefore restoring lost functions.”
