Research Strategy

At the core of Swiss Paraplegic Research (SPF) is functioning and rehabilitation research from a comprehensive perspective. Through the clinical and community-oriented approaches, a person is considered from a comprehensive point of view in interaction with society. All relevant aspects of the human experience are thus included in the research.

The knowledge transfer to develop and apply effective measures is of fundamental importance. Along the lines of «learn for and from spinal cord injury» as well as «learn for and from Switzerland» SPF has, in collaboration with its partners in Switzerland and abroad, committed its research to all relevant questions within the research area of spinal cord injury.
