Summary

This study tests if stem cells taken from a patient's own fat and injected into the spine can safely help improve movement and feeling after a spinal cord injury. About 40 adults with paralysis will receive the treatment. The goal is to see if this approach can restore some function, but it is not expected to be a complete cure.
