A key determinant of post-stroke recovery is the brain’s ability to reorganize its structure and function following injury, known as neuroplasticity. This process involves a complex network of interacting mechanisms, including changes in synaptic connections, neural circuitry, blood vessel formation, and inflammation. However, harnessing these separate mechanisms is extremely difficult.
