Mission

Our mission is to engage Veteran stakeholders in multiple facets of CfNN research intended to explore new science and develop new treatments to improve Veterans’ health by:
  • Providing feedback on current and planned CfNN research programs
  • Reviewing and providing suggestions on research procedures and materials (including recruitment)
  • Recommending ways of disseminating research findings to stakeholders
  • Identifying additional areas of need for Neurorestoration and Neurotechnology research.

Evidence VREC Works

  • Draws upon the strengths, resources, and diversity of individual patients and communities affected by a health issue.
  • Community needs are given equal weight against the priorities of researchers, clinical and academic partners, healthcare organizations, and funders.
  • The expertise and knowledge of patients and community members is honored.
  • Throughout the research there is an emphasis on openness, and building and maintaining trust between partners.
