Electrical stimulation and Botox combination therapy to enhance peripheral nerve regeneration after injury
This project combines two treatments for advancement in peripheral nerve injury to regenerate damaged tissues with Botox and eSTIM.
Research Project
Real Time Control of a Powered Prosthetic Leg Using Implanted EMG Signals with Sensory Feedback
We will conduct a first-in-human clinical trial to evaluate the effect of incorporating intramuscular EMG signals (obtained using a fully wireless implantable system), compared to surface EMG signals, on function ambulation and non-weight-bearing control of a powered leg prosthesis.
Research Project
Intuitively Controlled Virtual Reality System to Treat Phantom Limb Pain
We will develop a commercially viable VR rehabilitation system (called the Coapt PLP Management System) which can be deployed at home or in-clinic for individuals with upper or lower limb amputations.
Research Project
Neuromuscular mechanisms of specific trunk interventions in children with cerebral palsy
The goal of the proposed study is to examine the neuromuscular mechanisms underlying the therapeutic effect of hippotherapy and determine whether repeated exposure to a pelvic perturbation force would be effective in improving trunk postural control and gait of children with cerebral palsy. This study is supported by NIH/NINDS, 1R01NS115487, Date of Project Period: 03/01/2020-02/28/2025
