SCI Science PerspectivesAuthor: American Spinal Injury Association
The American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) brings you SCI Science Perspectives. The podcast is built around two-part dialogues with spinal cord injury (SCI) professionals regarding their emerging scientific work spanning the full spectrum of SCI research, from discovery to clinical application. The SCI Science Perspectives podcast disseminates the latest-and-greatest scientific work in the SCI field via a conversation with researchers that approaches their work from two perspectives: the scholarly perspective and the community perspective. The process begins with ASIAs Committees informing the podcast about new and influential scientific papers relevant to the committees interests. Then the podcast host(s) then interview the author(s) of the papers, approaching their project from each perspective. Finally, the conversation from each perspective is published as its own episode type: "Scholarly" and "Community" episodes. Keep an eye out too for "Admin" episodes too, communicating administrative information relevant to ASIA members and stakeholders.

Community EP030 - Spasticity and Early Motor Recovery after SCI with Dr. Sina Sangari
Episode 30
Friday, 8 March, 2024
Join us this episode for a conversation with Dr. Sina Sangari of the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab for a conversation about the paper titled "Spasticity Predicts Motor Recovery for Patients with Subacute Motor Complete Spinal Cord Injury" published in the journal Annals of Neurology. Regardless of the functional implications of spasms, Dr. Sangari and his colleagues explain the predictive value that spasticity, early after an acquired spinal cord injury, can have in predicting recovery of volitional motor function. We hope you enjoy this scholarly episode that offers a fresh take on the classic topic of spasticity.
