Miami Project to Cure Paralysis

The Miami Project to Cure Paralysis is a research initiative based at the University of Miami focused on understanding and treating spinal cord injuries. Established in 1985, it aims to develop therapies and technologies that promote recovery and improve the quality of life for individuals with paralysis. This project brings together scientists, doctors, and engineers to explore various approaches, including cell therapy, neuroengineering, and rehabilitation techniques. By advancing knowledge in these areas, the Miami Project seeks to find effective treatments and ultimately a cure for paralysis, helping those affected regain movement and independence.
