Damaged Brain Can Be Repaired And Cerebral Functions Restored, Laboratoire de Neurobiologie des Processus Adaptatifs Neuronal Study Suggests

ScienceDaily (Apr. 7, 2008) — Scientists in the Laboratoire de Neurobiologie des Processus Adaptatifs (CNRS/Université Pierre et Marie Curie) have shown that it is possible to repair an injured brain by creating a small number of new, specifically-targeted innervations, rather than a larger number of non-specific connections. Behavioral tests have demonstrated that such reinnervation can thus restore damaged cerebral functions.
