Members of the University of Kentucky (UK) Spinal Cord and Brain Injury Research Center (SCoBIRC) participated in the Unite2FightParalysis (U2FP) organization’s 17th annual Science & Advocacy Symposium.
SCoBIRC Director John Gensel, Ph.D. and Professor of Physiology Sasha Rabchevsky, Ph.D. represented UK at the conference in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Gensel gave a presentation on the link between what is done as researchers and how that work really impacts individuals living with spinal cord injuries. He calls the topic his “mid-career crisis” as a researcher.
