The proposed experiments use well-defined protocols with minimal risk from chronic stroke survivor research to test the monosynaptic reflex and TVR responses. We also gather clinical data in the acute and chronic stroke survivors.

This pilot study (akin to our SCI pilot) evaluates if AIH will augment motor function in the lower limbs of PwMS.

This study investigates the effectiveness of daily acute intermittent hypoxia therapy (dAIH), coupled with a massed practice intervention or the use of high repetition training with the Rapael Glove, to improve upper-extremity function in individuals with chronic incomplete cervical SCI.

We seek to quantify the serum inflammatory markers in individuals with SCI, and correlate inflammation with responsiveness to AIH therapy.

The objective of this study is to measure the electrical activity of single muscle fibers and to determine how this electrical activity changes after botulinum toxin injections.

To evaluate the Dwyer procedure we will assess the changes in foot pressure distribution and center of force (COF) trajectory of patients who had gait analysis done at the Motion Analysis Center.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship of the hip power in 3D Gait Analysis to select a set of preoperative gait features that distinguished between good (i.e., no longer stiff) and poor (i.e., remaining stiff) postoperative outcomes after rectus transfer surgery in children with Cerebral Palsy.

The Shirley Ryan Abilitylab Motion Analysis Center (MAC) is conducting a research study to establish a normative database of the oxygen consumed by individuals who are normal that can be used to contrast the performance of patients with walking deficits.

The Neurostimulation laboratory is currently pursuing multiple studies using various neurostimulation techniques, including transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and high-definition tDCS (HD-tDCS).

The Center for Rehabilitation Outcomes ÄÛBÑо¿Ôº received 3 years of funding¡ªcovering April 2021 through April 2024¡ªfrom the Craig H. Neilsen Foundation. This project aims to support the mental health of persons living with traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI).
