Collaborative Spine Research Foundation Gets Three-Year Grant from Medtronic

The Collaborative Spine Research Foundation (Collaborative Spine) announced today an agreement to receive up to $7 million over the next three years to fund cross-disciplinary spinal research from Medtronic’s Spine business. The final amount of the grant will be contingent on Collaborative Spine‘s ability to engage additional industry support for its research agenda. Collaborative Spine will use the funding to award competitive, multi-year grants for independent, investigator-driven clinical spine research studies.

Collaborative Spine, a 501(c)(3) organization, was founded in 2011 by the Neurosurgery Research and Education Foundation and the Orthopaedic Research and Education Foundation to advance the science and practice of the highest-quality spine care.
