Neuromodulation & Motor Control Lab

Neuromodulation Research Study

Over the last several years, we have been developing protocols to enhance the activity of residual sensorimotor pathways in individuals who suffered from spinal cord injury (SCI). We are happy to communicate that we are starting Phase IV of our protocol and we are actively enrolling participants who want to join our lab.

We are changing people's lives with our studies, just hear it from them!

Project study participant gains great balance and movement from trials.

Our Clinical Trials

We are recruiting participants for all of our studies.

Neuromodulation Clinical Trial

Rehabilitative exercise aims to engage residual neural networks in humans with spinal cord injury to improve functional recovery.

Closed loop control of vibration for muscle spasms after human spinal cord injury: efficacy and mechanism

This study will study and hope to understand and reduce the muscle spasms that that can sometimes occur post injury in spinal cord patients.

Targeted Neuroplasticity after Spinal Cord Injury

The purpose of this study is to test a strategy to restore upper and lower-limb motor function in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI)

Vibration attenuates spasm-like activity in humans with spinal cord injury.

KEY POINTS: Cutaneous reflexes were tested to examine the neuronal mechanisms contributing to muscle spasms in humans with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI). Specifically, we tested the effect of Achilles and tibialis anterior tendon vibration on the early and late components of the cutaneous reflex and reciprocal Ia inhibition in the soleus and tibialis anterior muscles in humans with chronic SCI. We found that tendon vibration reduced the amplitude of later but not earlier cutaneous reflex…
