Restorative Neurology of Spinal Cord Injury.

Restorative Neurology of Spinal Cord Injury.

Following injury or disease, neural circuitry can be altered to varying degrees leading to highly individualized characteristics that may or may not resemble original function. In addition, lost or partially damaged circuits and the effects of biological recovery processes coupled with learned compe...
