Restoring movement after paralysis: healthy volunteer study

This study is looking at ways to improve movement and health for people with paralysis from conditions like spinal cord injury, stroke, traumatic brain injury, or multiple sclerosis. It involves exercises and may include electrical stimulation to help your leg and trunk muscles work better.

This early-stage study tests whether regular, skin-based electrical stimulation can help people with paralysis or weakness regain movement. You would attend frequent clinic sessions for months, while the team checks your ability to follow instructions and your safety.

This study uses video recordings to analyze facial movements in people with facial paralysis, which may help improve how doctors measure and treat the condition. It is a non-invasive research study that does not involve any medication or surgery.

This trial studies whether an implanted device that can record and stimulate brain signals is safe and may improve movement in people with motor disability from certain nerve or brain conditions. It’s for adults with stable, long-lasting paralysis and good brain function who can follow the study plan.

This study uses a light-based brain scanner (fNIRS) to understand how stroke affects arm movement. It may help find new ways to improve rehab.

This trial studies whether a specific kind of non-painful brain stimulation (TMS) can improve arm and hand movement. It tests this in healthy volunteers and in people recovering from stroke.
