This book focuses on current applications of glial cells in neural regeneration, especially in spinal cord repair. It introduces the application of a few types of glial cells including oligodendrocyte, astrocyte, Schwann cells, and stem cell derived glial cells in neural regeneration. The latest glial cell research with biomaterials, gene modification, and electrical signals is also summarized. This is an ideal book for undergraduate and research students in tissue engineering, neurobiology, and regenerative medicine as well as researchers in the field.

Dr.Li Yao: After completing his BachelorDegree of Clinical Medicine in Beijing Capital Medical University, Dr. Yao was appointed as a resident doctor of surgery at the Beijing Chao Yang Hospital, Capital Medical University Hospital. After 3-year clinical working, he pursued a Masters ofOrthopaedic Surgery at Beijing JiShuiTan Hospital, Peking University Medical Center. After graduation, he continued to work in that hospital and was appointed as an attending doctor in orthopaedic surgery. In 2001, Dr. Yao went to United Kingdomfor the PhD study in Biomedical Science at the University of Aberdeen. He pursued his postdoctoral research at the National University of Ireland, Galway and the Mayo Clinic, Rochester. He started a tenure-track assistant professor position in Department of Biological Sciences, Wichita State University, United Statesfrom 2011. He was appointed as a tenured associated professor from 2017. His research interest is regenerative medicine and neural tissue engineering with a focus on electric fields-guided neural cell migration, and spinal cord and peripheral nerve repair and regeneration. He investigates neural regeneration using biomaterial scaffolds, cell and molecular therapy and electrical stimulation.
