Calgary researchers building one of 'key centres in the world' for neurological disorder therapies, tech yyc
Nick Wiltshire, a study participant, said it’s incredible to have such technology and innovation in Calgary.
“A lot of people don’t realize all of the complications with spinal cord injury that severely impact daily life,” said Wiltshire. “My blood pressure drops several times a day very suddenly, which makes me light-headed, at risk of fainting and greatly affects my daily function.” Also among RESTORE Network-funded initiatives is Foothills Medical Centre’s virtual reality treadmill, which is meant to assist in stroke recovery, and a robotic-assisted walking device for children with mobility challenges at the Alberta Children’s Hospital.
Murray Sigler, president and CEO of the Calgary Health Foundation, said the network was established with a generous bequest from the estate of Edith Rodie to the University of Calgary and Calgary Health Foundation.
