How do corticosteroids influence myelin genesis in the central nervous system? (2014)
Journal Article
Clinical use of corticosteroid (CS) therapy and links with adverse neurological effects CS therapy is widely used in clinical practice worldwide, with administration of high and multiple doses prescribed for a range of disease and injury. Notably, C... Read More about How do corticosteroids influence myelin genesis in the central nervous system?.

Magnetic nanoparticles for oligodendrocyte precursor cell transplantation therapies: progress and challenges (2014)
Journal Article
Oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) have shown high promise as a transplant population to promote regeneration in the central nervous system, specifically, for the production of myelin - the protective sheath around nerve fibers. While clinical tr... Read More about Magnetic nanoparticles for oligodendrocyte precursor cell transplantation therapies: progress and challenges.
Spinal cord injury model (2014)
Journal Article
An in vitro spinal cord injury model to screen neuroregenerative materials (2014)
Journal Article
Implantable ‘structural bridges’ based on nanofabricated polymer scaffolds have great promise to aid spinal cord regeneration. Their development (optimal formulations, surface functionalizations, safety, topographical influences and degradation profi...

Identifying the cellular targets of drug action in the central nervous system following corticosteroid therapy (2014)
Journal Article
Corticosteroid (CS) therapy is used widely in the treatment of a range of pathologies, but can delay production of myelin, the insulating sheath around central nervous system nerve fibers. The cellular targets of CS action are not fully understood, t... Read More about Identifying the cellular targets of drug action in the central nervous system following corticosteroid therapy.
