RESEARCH IS BETTER

WHEN PEOPLE WITH SCI HELP DESIGN IT

Bonnie Richardson praises NASCIC’s engagement program, which connects projects requesting input or involvement from people living with SCI to willing participants. 

This human-focused approach allows those who will benefit the most from the research to play an active role in designing the studies, “rather than just be data that is measured and manipulated,” says Richardson. 

“When considering our individual abilities and challenges, we are the experts. 

When researching something for our community, collectively we have invaluable real-life experience to contribute.”
