COMPLETE: LifeWalker® Upright Laboratory-Based Research Study
The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy of the LifeWalker Upright (Model J100) versus a standard rollator and predicate assistive device on gait function in adults using a walker with or without back pain.
Research Project
Skeletal Muscle Design in Animals and People
Purpose of skeletal muscle is to produce force and, ultimately, movement. As such, this highly specialized tissue has been studied extensively by bioengineers.
Research Project
Technology Development
We aim to combine clinical observations and lab research to improve understanding of technology embedded into the medical setting and ultimately impacting care.
Research Project
Muscle Injury and Repair
Defining the relationships between muscle injury and muscle repair.
Research Project
Intraoperative Hand Measurements
Restoring function and correcting joint deformities.
Research Project
Exploring Sex Effects in Rehabilitation Medicine
Recent trials support the therapeutic utility of rTMS where a hyperexcitable unlesioned motor cortex can be targeted with slow frequency stimulation.
Research Project
Computational and Mathematical Modeling of Human Knee Joints
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructive surgeries, employing a total of 48 models, were conducted by virtually removing the ACL and then modeling the surgical preparation, tunnel architecture, graft pre-tensioning and fixation angle of a bone-patellar-tendon-bone autograft.
Research Project
Untangling of Lower Limb Synergies Post Stroke
Growing evidence demonstrates unique synergistic signatures in the lower limb (LL) post-stroke, with specific across-plane and across-joint representations. While the inhibitory role of the ipsilateral hemisphere in the upper limb (UL) has been widely reported, examination of the contralesional hemisphere (CON-H) in modulating LL expressions of synergies following stroke is lacking.

COMPLETE: Safety, Reliability, and Efficacy of the Harmony SHR Upper Extremity Robotic Rehabilitation System in the Inpatient Rehabilitation Setting for Patients with Acute Stroke
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, reliability, and effectiveness of the use of Harmony SHR in rehabilitation of the upper extremities in the inpatient stroke population as compared to conventional occupational therapy.
Research Project
COMPLETE: Evaluation of a Soft Exosuit for Acute Stroke Recovery
The first arm of this study aims to develop individualized controller parameters and a training progression program for inpatients post stroke utilizing the soft exo suit.
Research Project
COMPLETE: Towards the Development of a 3D Imaging and Classification System for Exoskeleton Systems
This study aims to validate a proposed solution that will provide users a practical way to adjust their exoskeleton/bionic suit's gait to precisely achieve their navigational goals.
Research Project
COMPLETE: 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.
