Novel injectable hydrogel: optimized sustained drug release for Spine

Do you suffer from an incurable neurological condition? Have you sustained a devastating injury of the spine and need to know that there is more to it than the "traditional" symptomatic management? This is exactly what the author of this book thought. After a severe high level cervical injury of the spine he was motivated to enter medical school and study in depth his condition to help others. He has trained in some of the best paraplegic centers of the world in an attempt to find answers. Experiencing the lack of treatments for neurological conditions he was involved in research in neuroregeneration and tissue engineering to make a difference and lead the way to novel therapeutics. This book can help you understand what is neural engineering and how hydrogels can be used for spinal cord injury in order to support the injured spine and safely deliver drugs or other substances that can assist in the naturally unsuccessful nerve repair processes. Learning now what you can expect from the rapidly advancing field of regenerative medicine could eventually help you find the way to rise from the wheelchair and climb the stairs of life.
