This opportunity supports postdoctoral research fellows working in spinal cord injury (SCI) research at South Carolina colleges or universities. The goal is to expand SCI research capacity within the state by developing early-career scientists through mentored training experiences in basic, applied, or translational research. Projects should address issues faced by the SCI community in South Carolina, spanning neurobiology, rehabilitation, clinical care, epidemiology, or education. Fellows are expected to work closely with experienced mentors and contribute to the state's SCI research and care ecosystem.
