Here is a link to a new ScienceDaily article which Brue is trying to share.

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases...0523133057.htm

Science Daily has a strict copyright so I won't quote any of it here.

Suffice it to say this article expands on the topic we had here a while back about dorsal root ganglia, and stem cell transplantation for damage ganglia.
Here is another link to a new article on the dorsal root ganglia issue:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3287412/

Both of these procedures are in very early days, research wise and will not be available for patients for a long time yet.

They are interesting to read however.
