Dr. Benjamin Greenberg joined Dr. GG deFiebre of SRNA on our
podcast series, “Ask the Expert: Research Edition.” This episode
is titled “Update: Study to Investigate the Safety of the
Transplantation of Human Glial Restricted Progenitor Cells into
Patients with Transverse Myelitis.” Dr. Greenberg discussed the
background and status of the study. It is the first of its kind
to look at the potential use of stem cells to repair the damage
in spinal cords affected by myelitis, inflammation in the spinal
cord. He also explained the screening process, enrollment, and
