Description
The New Jersey Commission on Spinal Cord Research, through the New Jersey Department of Health, supports postdoctoral and graduate student research that holds promise for developing interventions and cures for paralysis and other consequences of spinal cord injury and disease. The fellowships are intended to nurture the next generation of spinal cord researchers.
The commission’s research priorities include spinal cord repair and regeneration, prevention or treatment of secondary complications, restorative rehabilitation, and translation of basic and preclinical findings into clinical applications. It encourages innovative ideas and interdisciplinary approaches. Awards are competitively reviewed and are intended to advance promising research rather than provide long-term support.
