Get educated on the latest in curative treatments and strategies. Hear directly from SCI community members and advocates about their goals, experience and priorities.
Collaborate
Bring your questions and share your perspective. Learn about novel strategies for restoring function and chat with the researchers who pioneered them.
Take Action
Find out about ways to collaborate with the SCI and Scientific communities in new and unique settings. Then get plugged in to available opportunities.
Agenda
We’ll have eight sessions spanning two days where we cover topics such as, What Can Stim Do?; Is ‘5 Years’ Finally Here? and The Future in Combination. Presentations will include recent findings on sexual function and spasticity, along with updates on where SCI research money has gone these last 10 years and whether combination studies like the U2FP-facilitated NervGen+Stim experiment in pigs is a path toward better, faster recovery potential.
You can read a detailed summary of what we have planned for these two days in my recent blog post, The Agenda - U2FP’s Symposium. Then go check out more details on the Agenda page of our website.
Conference Hotel
We only have a few rooms left in our group block at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis. Don’t wait - reserve your room now!
We're looking forward to another great, collaborative gathering of the SCI and Scientific communities.
