The Roman Reed Spinal Cord Injury Research Program
|
| The Roman Reed Spinal Cord Injury Research Program takes a multifaceted approach. One portion of the Roman Reed Spinal Cord Injury Research funds are used to launch unique, creative research projects by faculty throughout the UC system and the state of California. The idea here is to provide seed funds for highly innovative projects that offer the promise of eventually leading to new federal and private funding.
These awards are different from more traditional grants in that scientists who receive these funds become part of the Roman Reed Research Consortium. This group, along with other spinal cord injury /neural regeneration researchers from California, meets each year to discuss ways to best communicate and collaborate, thereby significantly improving the caliber of spinal cord injury research undertaken in the state of California.
