Translating concepts of neural repair after stroke: Structural and functional targets for recovery

Stroke is among the most common causes of adult disability worldwide, and its disease burden is shifting towards that of a long-term condition. Therefore, the development of approaches to enhance recovery and augment neural repair after stroke will be critical. Recovery after stroke involves comple x interrelated systems of neural repair. There are changes in both structure (at the molecular, cellular, and tissue levels) and function (in terms...
