I would very much wellcome such an idea. Nothing would be as awarding as a
breakthrough in this area. Therefore there should be a special newsgroup for
spinal trauma and spinal cord paralysis. That newsgroup should cover the whole
range ( from basic research to clinical problems )
By the way could you or someone else provide me with information ( a list of
groups maybe ) of people working in this field ( basic research and
experimentell treatment modalities in particular). I would like to join such a
group. But I couldn`t find anyone working in this field so far.
Cheers, Berend
