Talk the Walk

Hosted by the CatWalk Cure Programme at the University of Auckland, a CatWalk Trust and University of Auckland partnership.

Join researchers from around the globe to advance spinal cord injury research.

Talk the Walk is a one-day symposium for those with a spinal cord injury, carers, clinicians, researchers and all interested stakeholders. Join us for presentations and discussions exploring the latest advancements and challenges in spinal cord injury research.

Round off Talk the Walk with an exclusive opportunity to speak directly with researchers in a relaxed and informal setting.

The Research Intensive, for researchers and research students only, will unite pioneers of spinal cord injury research with the next generation of scientists, creating an environment of collaboration and innovation.
