The brain may be able to repair itself — with help | Jocelyne Bloch
Through treating everything from strokes to car accident traumas, neurosurgeon Jocelyne Bloch knows the brain's inability to repair itself all too well. But now, she suggests, she and her colleagues may have found the key to neural repair: Doublecortin-positive cells. Similar to stem cells, they are extremely adaptable and, when extracted from a brain, cultured and then re-injected in a lesioned area of the same brain, they can help repair and rebuild it. "With a little help," Bloch says, "the brain may be able to help itself."

The brain will heal itself fully eventually I think God created it that way 😊
Poor monkeys 🙁
I’ve always believed in an injection that can inject brain cells
Too long to wait love……….I need help now!
Until more research/finance/fresh thinking or just plain giving a toss about us there will be no progress let alone a cure. My grandfather had a stroke 40 years ago (he's gone now) and he got better treatment then compared to what I've received to date. No progress in stroke treatment in 40 years as far as I can deduce. 2022 now, they can send 120 million messages simultaneously around the planet in an instant, put rovers on Mars, cars that drive themselves yet no progress in addressing brain damage. They're great at saving your life after a stroke, but what life? I've had enough. don't want to live like this, especially with no hope. millions of us all over the World in suffering from this terrible affliction. I became a grandad last year…….can't even sit the little fella on my knee!
My mother needs help.she is facing same issue
Thankyou madam for your awesome discovery
Your generosity towards my health issues is
incomparable,you assured me of getting healed
and here I am strong and healthy. Thank you Dr Ofenmu on YouTube. I will let the world know about
your kind gesture..
is this going to be like flowers for algernon where he improves but then gets worse and dies
Sooo wait he did practice and his performance improved omg why do i pay you for this
i don"t pay. I pay nothing. but still you can"t rule
out the fact that he had done it before and had experience
I need your help doc. My grandma is dying. She had major stroke. We need help ASAP.
This is incredible, I want to do this 😯
Trump would remove regulations
Love this content 👊🏼✌🏼⚡️
Keep in mind…the brain simply can NOT regenerate cells, once dead, it stay dead. Don't be conned. Example, if you lost a limb could you simply grow one back…..of course not. Then why the F**k would you think your brain could do it?
I need this for my daughter, when’s the trial ?
Impressive work , I wonder if stem cell research can help this cause
Hi , do you have any new results for humans. I mean can we use it on human now please reply to me please.
ill participate in the trials if theres even a small chance of bigger recovery
Nope, why would big pharma allow this?
Direct injection to the brain ! Wow
That was 6 years ago. What’s the holdup. People are suffering now and sure many will volunteer for it. Stop with the bureaucracy and holding this treatment hostage for big grants and big payout.
I don't know why, but I don't trust that lady… it sounds like experiments on ppl and there is No need to take out cells cause they create themselves inside
