ABSTRACT This is a request to support the inaugural Nerve SPACE (Setting Priorities to Advance Clinical and Research Efforts in Nerve Injury) Conference, which will be hosted at Washington University Medical Center in St. Louis, MO in Q2 2025. Washington University has a distinct history of innovation and achievement in nerve injury and reconstruction, with internationally-recognized experts tracing lineage to the nerve programs in Plastic Surgery, Neurosurgery, and Orthopaedic Surgery, and is therefore uniquely position to host the inaugural Nerve SPACE meeting. Function of the musculoskeletal system is suddenly disrupted by nerve injuries. To restore function of the musculoskeletal system, patients with nerve injuries are cared for by hand surgeons, orthopaedic surgeons, plastic surgeons, and neurosurgeons. This broad coalition of disciplines provides the opportunity to gather a diverse and inclusive group of perspectives on the diagnosis, prognosis, clinical care, and research priorities for nerve injuries. The purpose of the Nerve SPACE conference is to gather nerve surgeons, established and emerging researchers, and other stakeholders (therapists, physiatrists, neurologists, patient advocates, and industry contacts) to discuss current controversies and future directions for clinical care and research in peripheral nerve injury. There will be an emphasis on open discussions, forward thinking, exploring cutting-edge findings, and building consensus.
