The Miami Project to Cure Paralysis was founded in 1985 with the help of Barth A. Green, M.D. and NFL Hall of Fame linebacker Nick Buoniconti after Nick’s son, Marc, sustained a spinal cord injury during a college football game. The Miami Project is a Center of Excellence at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. It is considered the premier investigative research program conducting cutting edge discovery, translational, and clinical investigations targeting spinal cord and brain injuries. Since its inception, research at The Miami Project has changed the landscape of knowledge and therapeutic strategies for spinal cord and traumatic brain injury.
Our planet, as we knew it, is spinning and churning in a state of chaos created by the historic Covid-19 pandemic. With that said, our leadership team remains healthy, strong, and unwavering in our commitment to finding a cure for paralysis. Over the last thirty five years, our researchers have impactfully changed the practice of medicine by creating new treatments and technologies which are used daily in clinics and hospitals around the world. How did this historic effort materialize? With your help! Full story.
