Vibration Project For Muscle Spasms
Learning the mechanisms behind spasms and spasticity, and using them to appropriately manage them post spinal cord injury.
Research Project
Descending Pathways + Spasticity
This study explore the contribution of descending motor pathways to the development of spasticity and motor recovery with the aim to implement effective rehabilitative intervention.
Research Project
Using Sensors and EMG Biofeedback to Increase Upper Limb Voluntary Output after Stroke or SCI
We combine sensors with fun, interactive computer games in order to strengthen arm muscles after stroke or SCI! Free program offered by the Perez Lab.
Research Project
Spasticity Assessments Research Project
The purpose of the study was to examine the contribution of passive muscle stiffness and active spinal reflex mechanisms to clinical outcomes of spasticity after SCI.
Research Project
Intracortical Inhibition in Humans with Spinal Cord Injury
This study investigates the intracortical inhibition in humans with cervical spinal cord injury. We particularly aim to understand the inhibitory mechanism for the control of upper arm muscles to further promote rehabilitation protocol.
Research Project
Use of a Micro-Processor Controlled Knee-Ankle-Foot Orthosis Compared to Traditional Rehabilitation in Spinal Cord Injury
The study will evaluate the potential of the C-Brace from Ottobock to improve the functional mobility and quality of life in individuals with lower extremity impairments due to spinal cord injury when compared to traditional rehabilitation methods.
Research Project
COMPLETE: Wearable Sensor Platform to Monitor Stroke Recovery
This project proposes continuous monitoring, quantification, and interpretation of recovery during inpatient treatment of stroke using non-invasive, portable, real-time body-worn sensors.
Research Project
Wearable Sensor and Video Platform to Monitor Motor Development in Infants
The goal of this project is to develop an automated, precise, quantitative biobehavioral assay for detecting infants at risk, and then rigorously test an early-life intervention to promote typical motor movement and sensory development in those infants in a manner designed for uptake and dissemination.
Research Project
Researching Sensory-specific Peripheral Stimulation
The purpose of this research project is to understand the neurophysiological mechanisms of peripheral electrical stimulation (PES) in modulating tremors, sometimes seen in Parkinson's disease.
Research Project
Wearable Airbag Technology to Mitigate Falls in Individuals with Parkinson’s Disease
We expect that a smart, wearable airbag system that can accurately predict falls and quickly inflate will reduce hip fractures in people with Parkinson's.
Research Project
Precision Medicine Originating From Patient Derived Neurons
This project studies precision neurotrauma medicine with patient-derived iPSC-neurons to determine patient specific factors affecting clinical outcomes
Research Project
Clinical Trial: Time Distribution of Computer-Based Script Training in Aphasia
The purpose of this project is to conduct a series of intervention studies to examine the rate and extent to which persons with aphasia learn and subsequently forget, following one or more treatment sessions.
