Скачать или смотреть The Brazilian Scientist Who May Help Cure Paralysis: The Discovery of Polylaminin

Did you know a Brazilian scientist may have taken one of the biggest steps in the history of modern medicine?

In this video, I take a break from our usual content about marine life and orcas to talk about a discovery that simply cannot be ignored: the work of Tatiana Sampaio, from UFRJ (Federal University of Rio de Janeiro), and the creation of Polylaminin – a molecule that can help regenerate the spinal cord and reconnect neurons that were once considered “lost forever”.

📌 In this video you’ll see:

Who Tatiana Sampaio is and where she works
What Polylaminin is and how it works as a “cellular scaffold”
How this discovery is helping patients with severe spinal cord injuries
The difficulties, funding cuts and lack of support for Brazilian science
Why this research is a landmark for Brazil and for the world
Even with years of budget cuts, lost patents and very little support, Brazilian science pushed through – and today Tatiana and her team are at the forefront of a possible revolution in spinal cord injury recovery.

In the end, I also share my personal take: after everything she achieved, it’s hard not to feel that she deserves global recognition – maybe even a Nobel Prize in the future.

In the next video, we’ll be back to the world of orcas. 🐳
But today… the spotlight is on Brazilian science. 🇧🇷🔬
