Through the experiences of the Myelopathy.org community and our health surveys, you have told us that pain is your major concern.   This is a new finding for the research community, who have been more focused on functional recovery. 
​Therefore, as part of our objectives to deliver research that meets your needs, we are delighted to support a survey from the University of Cambridge to provide more detail about your pain and how it affects you.  The survey is very detailed and will take some time to complete, but we hope this will be an important initial step to triggering greater pain research in myelopathy. ​

Find out more and participate here!

Sharing your experience will help forward our understanding


Meet Joe Hamilton from the University of Cambridge who is leading this research project.

Dear Sharon. Thank you for your question. This study is being run by Dr Mark Kotter's Group (His Investigator biography can be found at https://www.synbio.cam.ac.uk/directory/mrk25), as part of an series of projects investigating the patient experience of CSM and its symptoms. This has been ethically approved by the University's Human Biology Ethic's Board. The University does not curate a list of all active research projects I am afraid, hence why your search did not find a reference. If you require any further information, please get in touch by email.
