Will it ever be possible to repair spinal cord injuries?

I just read a news story about scientists using nanotechnology to repair broken spinal cords in mice. If possible in humans, this research could lead to cures of Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s, among others. Do you think it will ever be possible to repair a broken human spinal cord? If so, how far away in the future do you think it will be?

Answer #1

Considering medicine can now do things that were unimaginable 50 years ago I think that one day we will be able to repair spinal cord injuries. Not sure how long it will before this is feasible but Ithink one day we will be able to do it.
