We aim to study the neural stem cells and neural precursors in the spinal cord of different species, including humans. We would like to contribute not only to the biology of those cells but also to the understanding of the structure and functional organization of the niche in normal and...

We recently started this line thanks to the crowdfunding. We really thank our generous donors for giving us the oportunity to look for new tools against ependymal tumours through PRECIPITA platform, dependent on the Spanish Foundation of Science and Technology.
We are looking for human...

We are interested in the effect of SCI on peripheral organs (liver, gut, kidney...), that may affect the recovery and functional outcome of SCI patients.
We have recently published our first paper about changes in hepatic stellate cells after SCI in rats:
1-Spinal cord injury induces transient...

Acute blockade of cannabinoid receptors hampers spontaneous recovery
Exogenous administration of 2-arachidonoylglycerol early after spinal cord contusion limits the extension of secondary damage.
