Our people
At Spinal Research we have a small team covering research, fundraising, marketing, finance and everything in between.
We are ever grateful for the support of our Board. And our Advisory Committees are comprised of some of the leading voices within the research field, ensuring that we invest in the most promising scientific research.
Importantly many members of our staff and our Board live with the consequences of a spinal cord injury.
Together we are focused and determined to cure paralysis.
