Scottish Centre for Innovation in Spinal Cord Injury

Welcome to the Scottish Centre for Innovation in Spinal Cord Injury. We are a multidisciplinary alliance of engineers, scientists and clinicians carrying out fundamental and applied clinical research in all disciplines relevant to the treatment and quality of life of people with spinal cord injury.

The focus for research activity is the Queen Elizabeth National Spinal Injuries Unit (QENSIU) at Glasgow's Southern General Hospital. QENSIU provides acute care, primary rehabilitation and lifelong follow-up for all patients with spinal cord injury in Scotland.

We are pleased to announce the recent completion of a new research facility within QENSIU. The new research mezzanine, supported by the activities of the Scottish Centre for Innovation in Spinal Cord Injury, represents a unique research environment embedded within the clinical service. This opens a new chapter in human spinal cord injury research, and will add an important dimension to the comprehensive care package available to people in Scotland living with spinal cord injury.
