Intermittent Hypoxia Initiated Motor Plasticity in Individuals with MS

This study aims to understand how short periods of reduced oxygen (called acute intermittent hypoxia, or AIH) affect the brain and nervous system in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). The study has two main goals: 

• Goal 1: Measure how the body responds to AIH by looking at things like leg strength (ankle push-off torque), walking speed, and muscle activity recorded from the skin (surface EMG) in people with MS. 

• Goal 2: Use advanced MRI scans to see how AIH may change or strengthen brain activity in the areas that control movement.
