Chair of neurosurgery at Stanford University's School of Medicine stressed this isn't the first stem cell trial for strokes. The study early phase, with only 18 patients. But after injecting stem cells directly into the brain of chronic stroke patients, and the results were mind blowing. Researchers typically can't restore function in chronic stroke patients because their circuits are dead, but the injections could completely change that.
