The Spinal Cord Injury Community Survey

How does BC compare to the rest of Canada?

In August, RHI announced two new funding opportunities – Clinical Outcome Measures (COM) and Pilot Studies – Optimizing Neurorecovery Following SCI (PSON). These competitions were developed to meet the objectives of RHI's 2013 – 2018 Business Plan, to align with the areas of focus of the Cure, Care and Commercialization Programs and ultimately, help RHI move closer towards achieving its vision of a world without paralysis after spinal cord injury. RHI is pleased to announce the results of both funding competitions.
