Description
The Indiana Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute’s Indiana Traumatic Spinal Cord & Brain Injury Research program supports research aimed at preventing, treating, and curing spinal cord and traumatic brain injuries. Relevant areas include acute management, medical complications, rehabilitative techniques, and neuronal recovery. The program funds basic science, clinical research, and early commercialization of new technologies, including diagnostic or therapeutic drugs and devices.
The program encourages collaborations among Indiana-based researchers and with researchers outside Indiana. Priorities include new research directions and demonstrated progress along the translational spectrum, such as movement from in vitro to in vivo research. Early commercialization projects are prioritized when they can reasonably be expected to attract future SBIR/STTR funding or private investment.
