Why Attend?
New ideas and discoveries are being generated every day in SCI research and care. How can we work together to move these ideas through the intricate and complex SCI research and care continuum for the benefit of people living with spinal cord injuries today and in the future?
Learning from the non-SCI world in addition to collaboration across the entire SCI continuum are both vital elements in creating positive outcomes for people with SCI.
