| Cerebrospinal Fluid Pressure Monitoring and Biomarker Validation (CAMPER) |
The CAMPER study is a multi-centre clinical trial examining spinal cord perfusion pressure and biomarker analysis. The study will help establish best practice guidelines for managing the spinal cord perfusion pressure, which could minimize secondary damage as a result of acute injury and therefore improve recovery.

| Minocycline in Acute SCI |
Minocycline, an antibiotic that has been used as an acne treatment for over 30 years, has demonstrated neuroprotective properties that minimize inflammation and secondary damage to the spinal cord. This multi-centre clinical trial addresses its efficacy and safety for use in human clinical trials. |

| Spinal Cord Injury Research Evidence |
SCIRE project is dedicated to providing up-to-date, accurate information about the effects of rehabilitation care for people with SCI. SCIRE is available in two versions - one written in everyday language for individuals with SCI and their caregivers, and one written in academic language aimed at health professionals.
