Summarized content: Data for this publication is available on Zenodo and is open to the public under a Creative Commons Attribution license. The articles referenced focus on advances in spinal cord repair and restoration of voluntary control and locomotion after injury. Unique research includes deep brain stimulation to improve hindlimb function, a neuromodulation intervention to facilitate walking in rats after spinal cord injury, and a neuroprosthesis that improves leg control after injury. Studies also explore brain activity mapping, spinal cord neuromodulation, and the use of optogenetics to control neural activity. Other topics covered are spinal cord injury modeling, robotic interface for locomotion training, and brain–spine interfaces for gait recovery. Key findings include walking restoration in paralysis, trunk and leg motor function recovery, and controlled walking in primates with spinal cord injury.
