CONTACT:Richard Freeman
DESCRIPTION:The brain and spinal cord are notoriously poor at repairing th
 emselves once damaged by injury or disease. \n\nYet recent advances in the
  biology of stem cells and a growing understanding of why regeneration in 
 these structures is poor make scientists more optimistic than ever before 
 that new therapies will emerge that will support healing and recovery from
  neurological disease. \n\nIn this talk Prof Franklin will discuss some of
  these issues focusing on his own work in repair of myelin\, the substance
  lost in multiple sclerosis\, and spinal cord injury.\n
