About SPIN

The Systematic Profiling in Neurological Conditions (SPIN) Research Program aims to develop and implement treatment strategies that target specific health problems for individuals living with a neurological condition. SPIN prioritises engagement with those with lived experience of neurological conditions, and their relevant others, to direct the research program. Working closely with people with lived experience, their supporters and organisations servicing this community, the SPIN Research Program will identify novel treatment strategies that can be seamlessly translated into health service models to enrich the quality of life of all Western Australians living with a neurological condition.

SPIN has been generously supported by MSWA since 2019 and has since attracted additional funding from Lotterywest and the Perron Institute. The SPIN Program is also a part of the Neurological conditions program within the ECU Centre for Precision Health .
