It turned out that more than 100 years of research on spinal cord physiology, starting with the Nobel Prize Sherrington, had shown that the spinal cord, below most injuries, contained all the necessary and sufficient neural networks to coordinate locomotion, but because input from the brain is interrupted, they are in a nonfunctional state, like kind of dormant.
脊髓外科的研究起始于谢林顿 一位诺贝尔奖得主 至今已经有一百多年的研究史 许多研究都证实 大多数受伤后的脊髓 包含了协调运动所需的 所有的神经网络 但是由于来自大脑的输入被切断了 这些神经网络进入了类似休眠的状态
