TO GO WITH AFP STORY US-SCIENCE-ANIMAL- RESEARCH A test subject takes first steps up some stairs after neurorehabilitation with a combination of a robotic harness and electrical-chemical stimulation. Rats with spinal cord injuries and severe paralysis are now walking (and running) thanks to researchers at Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL). Published in the June 1, 2012 issue of Science, the results show that a severed section of the spinal cord can make a comeback when its own innate intelligence and regenerative capacity?what lead author Grégoire Courtine of EPFL calls the "spinal brain"?is awakened.
