Earlier this week Dr. Jerome Fryer started a Go Fund Me campaign and the objective was to raise $15 000 to investigate the mechanism behind the "popping" or "cracking" sound of synovial joints. I am humbled and delighted to announce that the funding requirements have been met. The Vancouver Foundation stepped up big time. What a great example of not waiting for governments, associations or schools and some of that red tape that delays the start of a project or the fact it may never get done. The study will take place at the University of British Columbia in the Mechanical Engineering Department sooner than later. Thank you to everyone for sharing the go fund me and donating. We're really making a difference here!
