A Coated Sponge: Toward Neonatal Brain Repair

In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Jinnou et al. (2018) identify a limited time window wherein neonatal brain injuries may be treated through neuroblast migration toward the injury site on radial glial fibers. Implanting a sponge coated with an adhesive factor in the injured neonatal brain supports the migration of neuroblasts and improves functional recovery.
