I am a pre-med student seriously considering PM&R so I am always looking into the FUTURE of PM&R because I think its a great one! I just read this article about stem cells being injected to patients with spinal cord injuries to stimulate nerve growth. Are physiatrists performing this? Are they able to? CAN they and if not WILL they be able to? If so, I think stem cell research could be INCREDIBLE for the PM&R field!
