Do you have a cervical spinal cord
injury and live in the United States? If so, you qualify for the following research survey.
Arm and Hand Function Research
Survey
The Reeve-Irvine Research Center
is conducting a research study to determine more details about the arm/hand impairments
experienced by men and women with cervical spinal
cord injuries and their knowledge about surgical options to increase function. The information gained from this study will be
used to help scientists and medical doctors develop experiments addressing these issues,
with the aim of developing therapeutic treatments for people living with SCI. For more information please contact Dr. Kim
Anderson at kanderso@uci.edu or call 949-824-0056. All information will be kept strictly
confidential.
Please pass this information on to fellow people living with SCI!
