Lack of adequate NIH funding is particularly dangerous in a relatively small field like spinal cord injury. For our field to continue to grow and push therapies to the patient, NIH funding is critical. Our scientists are telling us the situation is desperate. How do you tell someone recently paralyzed that the science is there but the funding is not?

Last week I trained two OBGYN physicians at EAMC and yesterday (Wednesday) I trained six out of 22 labor and delivery nurses. I'll train more nurses on Feb. 8 and eight more physicians and the rest of the nurses on Feb. 13. Once everyone is trained, we can start collecting cord blood. We should be up and running by Valentine's Day - that's the goal. If not, it should be shortly thereafter.
