This study is being done to conduct a preliminary investigation into a new prosthetic microprocessor controlled ankle, called the Damping, Stiffness, and Repositioning (DSR) ankle. Participants will visit the Shirley Ryan ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ÊÓƵ 10-16 times over 9 weeks, each visit lasting approximately 3 hours, to perform a series of walking and mobility tests with both their own prosthetic ankle and the DSR ankle.

The Journal of Neurophysiology recently published a review by Adenike Adewuyi, MD PhD ¡ª a 2022 graduate of Shirley Ryan ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ÊÓƵ¡¯s physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R) residency program ¡ª and her mentor, Colin Franz, MD, PhD, physician-scientist, at Shirley Ryan ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ÊÓƵ.
