We all have them, but can't really see them. I'm talking about spinal cords. A scientist and artist collaborated on an exhibit all about spinal cord injuries. Check it out!

From The Troy Record:

A professor and scientist from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and a visiting professor of art from the College of Saint Rose were both taken out of their comfort zones to create artistic and educational works based on research being conducted into stem cell technologies and the repair of spinal cord injuries.

The exhibit, titled “A Walk Through the Nervous System: Artists’ View of Nerves and Spinal Cord Injury” opened Friday with the hope of making it easier for the community at large to better comprehend not only how nerves work but also how injures affect the spinal cord.

Learn more about the exhibit!

Selvina: Hi, Janelle. I liked this exhibit! To view the spinal cords, make me understand more about it. I don't have spinal cord injury, but I want to learn about all paralysis and their possible cures to help the people where I can. Have a good day.
JLo: Selvina, your interest is great! You have come to the right place to learn all about paralysis and SCI. Anything I can help with, please let me know!
Selvina: Thank you!!! I'm knowing the website and I'm liking the CRPF's work. Thank you again. Good night.
