Paralysed man walks again - World's first
I think this is as big as the first heart transplant, if not bigger.

link:
http://www.theguardian.com/science/2...eering-surgery

"The 38-year-old, who is believed to be the first person in the world to recover from complete severing of the spinal nerves, can now walk with a frame and has been able to resume an independent life, even to the extent of driving a car, while sensation has returned to his lower limbs."

Not psychic, just a little more up to date with my news items than some. This was yesterday's headlines, the news is more than 30 hours old now.

Right, that explains it better. Must've been hard to miss, in that case.

Amidst all the wars and misery the world faces it is heartwarming to read stories like this, kudos to Prof Raismen and the Polish team for bringing hope to millions. The world needs more human beings like these men...

You got it all wrong, man. What they mean is only the US medical system can invent new things AND charge out the ass for them.

February 1, 1961: Till & McCulloch establish the foundation for stem cell science.

Toronto scientists Drs. James Till, a biophysicist, and Ernest McCulloch, a haematologist, published accidental findings in “Radiation Research” that proved the existence of stem cells – cells that can self-renew repeatedly for various uses. Both worked for the Ontario Cancer Institute (OCI) at the time.
