Spinal Cord Injury Research Participant Recruitment Database

A new database to assist in informing individuals with SCI about potential research studies that are currently recruiting is now live at https://redcap.link/SCIdatabase. Individuals who are interested in having researchers contact them about trials in Alberta that are of interest to them should please enroll using the link provided. You may indicate what types of studies interest you. If you have any questions about this database, please contact Dr. Jessica D’Amico at the Glenrose Rehabilitation Hospital/University of Alberta at damico1@ualberta.ca

To empower persons with spinal cord injuries and other physical disabilities to achieve Independence and full Community Participation.

We acknowledge that what we call Alberta is the traditional and ancestral territory of many peoples, presently subject to Treaties 6, 7, and 8. Namely: the Blackfoot Confederacy – Kainai, Piikani, and Siksika – the Cree, Dene, Saulteaux, Nakota Sioux, Stoney Nakoda, and the Tsuut’ina Nation and the Métis People of Alberta. This includes the Métis Settlements and the Six Regions of the Métis Nation of Alberta within the historical Northwest Metis Homeland. We acknowledge the many First Nations, Métis and Inuit who have lived in and cared for these lands for generations, and the harm and suffering they have endured. We are grateful for the traditional Knowledge Keepers and Elders who are still with us today and those who have gone before us. We make this acknowledgement as an act of reconciliation and gratitude to those whose territory we reside, and wish to take actions towards authentic allyship.
