Every 41 minutes another person sustains a spinal cord injury
The W.M. Keck Center for Collaborative Neuroscience is dedicated to multidisciplinary, collaborative research and to accelerating the translation of scientific discoveries into effective human therapies.
The focus of the Center's work is spinal cord injury with findings also applicable to persons with brain injuries, stroke, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, amyotropic lateral sclerosis, transverse myelitis, and other problems of the central nervous system.
The W.M. Keck Center operates on the belief that cure is achievable and that collaboration is the means by which that goal will be reached.
The Spinal Cord Injury Project is the first focus of the W. M. Keck Center for Collaborative Neuroscience. Its mission is to conduct cutting-edge research and to build collaborations to focus resources on finding a cure for spinal cord injuries.
The Spinal Cord Injury Project works to bring together research facilities, educational institutions, training programs, government officials, and corporate entities to work together to develop new therapies and to move the most effective treatments quickly to clinical trial.
A critical force in accelerating the pace of research is the involvement of those who are spinal cord injured and their families. The Spinal Cord Injury Project provides many programs and services for this community to keep them informed on issues of health, the latest in spinal cord injury research, and in ways that they can work to move the field forward.
