New Treatment Helps Paralysed Dog Walk Again

The video discusses Jasper, a dog who was paralyzed in his hind legs due to a spinal injury. Scientists used a cell transplant technique, taking cells from Jasper's nose and injecting them into his spinal cord, which allowed nerve fibers to grow and restore his ability to walk. This breakthrough raises hopes for similar treatments in human paraplegics, although full recovery is unlikely. The video also highlights the ongoing improvements in Jasper's condition and the potential future applications of this technique for humans.
