For those that are wondering if there are clinical trials in your area whether they're upcoming or in progress, you can easily search it up on the ClinicalTrials.gov website! Once you're on the website you'll see a box that says "Search for Studies" as seen below -
In the search box you can enter things like "spinal cord injury research Canada (or wherever you're from)".
I was surprised with how many trials were going on here locally so for those that are interested, be sure to give it a try!
Who are we? Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation & Human Motor Control Burke Medical Research Institute, Weill Cornell Medicine White Plains, NY

phytoscience265, while this Thread is about clinical trials, if you read the Thread, you will see that it is about clinical trials having to do with SCI, and not just “any” clinical trials. It is not about clinical trials for cancer.
darden, any treatment that “puts something into the spine” runs the risk of starting the growth of a tumor in the spine. Do you work for Unique Access in Thailand?
Does anybody have some information about Unique Access in Thailand and their work on spinal cord injury recovery?
I've actually been really interested in their work also considering that they're the only ones currently offering the treatment. I've watched all their YouTube videos and they seem legit. I've even been in touch with them and all and got accepted as a participant but the price was too high for something that was so new.

OK, thanks. And what was the price?
Something like $80,000 USD I believe? Don’t quote me on that though!
