Dal researchers develop silk‑based material that could regenerate nerve cells
Researchers at Dalhousie University have found a way to recreate the strength of spider silk in the lab. They believe it could help treat nerve cell damage, and even paralysis. Guest host Carolyn Ray spoke with Jan Rainey, a professor in Dal's department of biochemistry and molecular biology. He's been working on this research for more than a decade.
