In the rapidly evolving world of stroke research and rehabilitation, few initiatives have, in my view, reshaped the landscape as profoundly as I‑REBOUND.
It stands not merely as a program, nor simply as a research framework, but as a cultural turning point — the moment when Lived Experience ceased to be an optional consultation and became the beating heart of design, delivery, and discovery.
For many of us who have walked the long road of recovery, I‑REBOUND is more than an innovation. It is recognition. It is respect. It is the future arriving early.
As we mark the fifth anniversary of its launch, this milestone invites reflection.
Five years of survivors, clinicians, researchers, and families working side by side.Five years of co‑design not as an aspiration, but as a standard.
Five years of proving that when lived experience leads, meaningful change follows.If these themes resonate with you — whether as a clinician, survivor, researcher, or ally.
I invite you to read my full blog - When the Stroke Landscape Shifted: Marking the Fifth Anniversary of the 2021 Launch of I‑REBOUND and join me in celebrating this remarkable journey.
