The Christine E. Lynn Rehabilitation Center for The Miami Project to Cure Paralysis at UHealth/Jackson Memorial was designed from scratch to be one of the country’s elite facilities for patients recovering from traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, cancer treatment, and other complex conditions.
Our physiatrists are leaders in the field, treating acute and chronic pain and musculoskeletal disorders and serious disorders of the neurological system that result in functional limitations.
Located in the Christine E. Lynn Rehabilitation Center, our faculty and residents conduct a variety of research endeavors focused on physical and/or cognitive impairments and disabilities.
