Development of
"Brain Glue"
To promote regeneration of neural tissue after traumatic brain injury.
The Brain Glue is a hydrogel matrix with a gelatin-like consistency that acts as a scaffolding for transplanted stem cells, which are capable of repairing damaged tissue. With the unique ability to take the shape of the void left in the brain after severe trauma, the Brain Glue will enable a more natural healing environment for stem cells to colonize and regenerate.
