Welcome to the SCI Action Canada Lab

Our lab conducts research on how to inform, teach and enable people living with spinal cord injury to initiate and maintain a physically active lifestyle. We also study the mental and physical health benefits of physical activity for people living with spinal cord injury. As a community-engaged lab, we work closely with community stakeholders to ensure that our research addresses meaningful questions and that our results can be put into practice.
