Great to meet @Tommy_little yesterday and show him the incredible impact that his fundraising efforts will have towards ⚡️Project Spark. 🙌#spinalcordinjuryawareness
.@Tommy_Little took a 92-kilometre swim across the English Channel to raise money for spinal cord injury research. Today, he got to hand over a cheque for $100,000 to Project Spark. #TheProjectTV

Great to have the support of the Victorian Jockeys’ Association and them backing research for a cure for spinal cord injury.🙏
The VJA has continued its push to help find a cure for spinal cord injury with a ‘generous’ donation to SpinalCure. bit.ly/3NRJyOR
The good news is, we're already testing the same kind of therapy — in world-leading research, Prof Ruitenberg at UQ has identified that the anti-inflammatory drug IVIg is able to significantly change the inflammatory profile of patients following a SCI. ommcomnews.com/science-tech/…

Australian television icon @KAK is asking people to sign a petition for funding of a "ground-breaking" new spinal cord treatment. The star told Nat and Kochie she's "passionate" about the cause after her late husband's tragic fall left him paralysed. 7news.link/Petition

We were delighted to host Senator @lindareynoldswa and Senator @ajamesbragg at @neuraustralia this morning for a tour of the Spinal Cord Injury Research Centre (SCIRC) and to see our #eWALK trial in action. xitter.cf/lindareynoldswa/status…
More than 20,000 Australians live with a spinal cord injury, with at least one injury occurring every day. Today, after many Zoom meetings, I visited the Spinal Cord Injury Research Centre with @ajamesbragg to see the groundbreaking research by @SpinalCure & @neuraustralia.

What happens after a #SCI? Early surgery is typical in order to decompress and stabilize the spine. However, even if the spine is successfully stabilized, the initial injury can lead to a cascade of complications. Learn more: bit.ly/3gbT0eB

We have an exciting study about to start @neuraustralia investigating whether abdominal muscle stimulation can improve bowel function for people living with a chronic spinal cord injury. If you or anyone you know are interested contact details found here: neura.edu.au/research-centre…
