Augmented Recovery after SCI; Application of Therapeutic Combinations in Preclinical Studies, and Early Phase Clinical Trials.
The current focus of the Guest lab is on the transplantation of autologous glial cells to repair spinal cord injuries. We utilize several types of animal models with an emphasis on solving translational questions related to human clinical application.
The Guest lab is a translational spinal cord injury laboratory spanning large animal preclinical experimentation into early Phase human clinical trials of cell therapy and neuroprotection. Members have simultaneously participated in preclinical experiments and assessment of human clinical trial subjects when suitably qualified. Clearly, this is a unique opportunity.
