We aim to combine clinical observations and lab research to improve understanding of technology embedded into the medical setting and ultimately impacting care.

Defining the relationships between muscle injury and muscle repair.

Restoring function and correcting joint deformities.

Recent trials support the therapeutic utility of rTMS where a hyperexcitable unlesioned motor cortex can be targeted with slow frequency stimulation.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructive surgeries, employing a total of 48 models, were conducted by virtually removing the ACL and then modeling the surgical preparation, tunnel architecture, graft pre-tensioning and fixation angle of a bone-patellar-tendon-bone autograft.

Growing evidence demonstrates unique synergistic signatures in the lower limb (LL) post-stroke, with specific across-plane and across-joint representations. While the inhibitory role of the ipsilateral hemisphere in the upper limb (UL) has been widely reported, examination of the contralesional hemisphere (CON-H) in modulating LL expressions of synergies following stroke is lacking.

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.
