Why Doesn`t Your Brain Heal Like Your Skin?
... One way is to protect the nervous system immediately after the damage occurs. This damage could be a stroke, a severe concussion, or any kind of injury. If we can somehow limit the number of neurons that die early after injury, then we are keeping the damage to a minimum. To help with repair later o ...
