stem cells are special cells that can differentiate into any kind of human cell. The brain is made up of nerve cells which cannot regenerate. This means that a person with a brain or spinal chord injury is not able to heal. Theoretically, a doctor could induce these stem cells to grow into nerve cells in order to heal a person with a brain or spinal chord injury. In order to do this however they would need to be able to do a lot of research with stem cells first
