Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are inviting submissions to this Special Issue on “Spine and Spinal Cord Biomechanics and Rehabilitation”.
Spinal cord injuries are directly related to quality of life. The development of diagnostic and therapeutic methods for the spine and spinal cord is an important area for maintaining quality of life. In the field of spine and spinal cord, regeneration and alignment research has been very active in recent years, but a wide variety of other research exists as well.
In this issue, we will focus on spinal cord and spine biomechanics, computer simulation, and rehabilitation research. We believe that such research will eventually lead directly to the establishment of safe treatment methods and improvement in the quality of life of patients.
We invite submissions exploring clinical and experimental research in the fields of Spine and Spinal Cord Biomechanics and Rehabilitation.
Dr. Norihiro Nishida
Guest Editor
