MA General has been conducting pain research related to SCI using humans since at least 1998. Back when NSCIA had a bullentin board they were posting for particiants. This looks like a related study that involves more follow up. I have a friend from the Boston area who particpated and he liked the concept. They were active in using PVA and NSCIA members and provided a fair amount of patient information.
