RESEARCH
For the last 23 years, CPN has provided over $18 million dollars to support research towards finding a cure and living with paralysis. Below you will find information on our current research efforts.
CPN SUPPORTS NEW STIM-PEPTIDE RESEARCH STUDY
COMBINATION THERAPY STUDY
Spinal Cord Stimulator
NervGen’s NVG-291
Porcine Animal Model
In 2022, Conquer Paralysis Now was approached with an exciting research opportunity: Combine resources with other independent charities who focus on spinal cord injuries to support a new study designed by Unite2Fight Paralysis. 
The study is a unique multidisciplinary research study combining a nerve growth drug and epidural stimulation in a large animal model targeting chronic spinal cord injury. This study will apply a combination of interventions already being tested in humans and be carried out by the same people testing the therapies in humans. 
CPN and the four other nonprofits were excited to provide community-based funding of about $400,000. This funding will allow researchers to gather preliminary stim/peptide data that could perhaps lead to more substantial federal money later.
