A multicenter clinical research study @UCSF_BASIC aiming to implement new treatments through interdisciplinary approaches & transform the lives of SCI patients.
We're in the news 🎉Congrats again to everyone involved in the study, first foremost to @AbelTorresEspi2 & a huge thank you to all our patient volunteers like Chris. And of course this wouldn't be possible without our funders @CDMRP #SCIRP & @NeilsenFndn!

Check out our latest paper published in @eLife! We have used machine learning to uncover a blood pressure range during acute spinal cord injury surgery that maximizes probability of neurological improvement at hospital discharge. doi.org/10.7554/eLife.68015
pressure range which increases significantly the probability of functional improvement after #SpinalCordInjury. Congrats to all authors 🎉🎉🎉 You can read the full story here: elifesciences.org/articles/6…
We're excited to share a new preprint from our work! While leveraging powerful automated #machinelearning tools, we focus on integrating clinical expertise into the loop to key in on critical hemodynamic predictors of #SCI outcome. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
With #machinelearning becoming more accessible for #biomedicine, we need better strategies to interpret and improve the #reproducibility for clinical ML. Read about our lessons-learned and process for bridging complex ML models & clinical experts to empower clinical discovery.

Our community is growing continuously. This is very exciting. The next step is to actually upload data! Starting before it is required by funders sounds like a great idea.
Hey All! For those in the US, today is the start of a three-day holiday weekend. However, for all of us, we're coming back to another IOSCIRS seminar on Tuesday! Drs. Austin Chou and John Kramer will be presenting. Have a great weekend!
Congratulations to our own Dr. Adam Ferguson on the acceptance of the new project proposal titled: "Elevating SCI Translation: Combining Literature-sourced Informatics, Meta-science, Bioinformatics Evidence Research (CLIMBER)" by the #wingsforlife foundation! #spinalcordinjury
Our team is growing! We have a 4th center joining our study and that is @UW. They join @UCSF_BASIC, @UCSFFresno, and @OSUWexMed in our efforts to better understand human #SCI and provide tools and guidance to clinical practice. Who will join next?
Happy Wednesday everyone! We're almost to the weekend! Bu get even more excited for next Tuesday's seminar with @CaffertyLab & @AnaVivinetto! Our moderator will @LYGraves.
Looking forward for this meeting! Our study will be strongly represented with 4 speakers demonstrating how clinical research and #DataScience merge to inform and guide clinical practice.
Join your peers July 8-10 (Precourse July 7)for the ASIA 2021 Annual Scientific Meeting. Complete details available here:

Congratulations to our Co-I, @nikos_kyritsis, for his new DoD #SCIRP grant! We are really excited to see how data from our study will be used in a bedside-to-bench and back approach.
I'm thrilled to announce that the #KyritsisLab will be launching soon! Our first grant application was recommended for funding by the Department of Defense @CDMRP! So immensely grateful to all current and past mentors! Stay tuned for more updates in the near future! #SCIresearch
ALT A UCL master’s study about smartphone accessibility for individuals with spinal cord injuries by the MSc of Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technologies. The study has been approved by the UCL Research Ethics Committee.
We are seeking to identify the challenges faced by people with a spinal cord injury when using their smartphones to then improve the user experience.
You can virtually participate in the study by either completing our online questionnaire which is about 15 minutes and/or taking part in our interview which is about 1 hour long. You can sign up by visiting our website which can be found using the link in our bio.
