Wonderful. Hopefully they will get tons of funding to bring this to pass for as many people as possible, as soon as possible.

I always find it stunning how incredible advances like this are buried under the weight of all the bad news. Humans are literally never satisfied with anything. Unless _they're_ the paralyzed ones.

Wonder how it affects bowel and bladder. Can the patient get those functions back?
That'll be possible but that would also be another story.
Yes it does. It sends electrical signals to the spinal cord which can control motor functions such as bowel & bladder
What about hand function?
Does it affect can both bladder and bowel sphincter l don't know. If it restores those it will be a milestone perhaps.

Your legs don't fully recover even though you could walk again it's still a long process

Hmm Spinal cord is the primary controller 🤔😮 meaning is itself the brain of human motor system. Wow so the spinal cord could act indepedently of the brain???? Well we always study the nervous system as brain and spinal cord together anyways but is most of our actual movement due to our Spinal cord over everything else?
