In order to improve quality of life for those suffering from stroke, spinal cord injury, or traumatic brain injury, researchers have been working to restore the nervous system and reduce neurological deficits through a number of mechanisms. For example, Edited by: neurobiologists have been identifying and manipulating components of the intra- and Ioan Opris, University of Miami, USA extracellular milieu to alter the regenerative potential of neurons, neuro-engineers have Reviewed by: been producing brain-machine and neural interfaces that circumvent lesions to restore Yoshio Sakurai, functionality, and neurorehabilitation experts have been developing new ways to revitalize Doshisha University, Japan Brian R.
