Effect of acute intermittent hypoxia on upper limb function in individuals with spinal cord injury
This study will help create a framework for the development of practical techniques to harness beneficial neuroplasticity in individuals with SCI.
Ðǿմ«Ã½ÊÓÆµ Project
Relationship Between Intramuscular Pressure and Muscle Force
We are developing a minimally invasive tool to measure muscle force using fiber optics.
Ðǿմ«Ã½ÊÓÆµ Project
Intraoperative Sarcomere Length Measurements
We have found that spastic muscle, although having a normal stretch reflex, has a significantly higher intrinsic muscle stiffness compared to control muscle.

Motor Impairment Related Changes in Muscles Properties in Chronic Stroke
Interested in understanding if the chronic neural impairments & disuse of the upper limb associated with hemiparetic stroke lead to changes in muscle structure
Ðǿմ«Ã½ÊÓÆµ Project
Altering Activation Patterns in the Distal Upper Extremity After Stroke
This study evaluates a rehab approach for stroke survivors where the combination of drug therapy & AMP is used to encourage voluntary muscle control & strength.

Improving Control of Robotic Hand Prostheses
This project uses a computer algorithm that can learn patterns and determine what movement the user intends to make. The user can thus control the prosthesis.
Ðǿմ«Ã½ÊÓÆµ Project
Advanced Control Systems for Powered Prosthetic Legs
Robotic powered prostheses have a number of built-in mechanical sensors that can gather information about the position, angle, and force exerted by the prosthetic joints.
