Neuromodulation Research Study
Using transcranial magnetic stimulation, peripheral nerve stimulation, and exercise to expedite recovery from cervical spinal cord injury.
Research Project
Vibration Project For Muscle Spasms
Learning the mechanisms behind spasms and spasticity, and using them to appropriately manage them post spinal cord injury.
Research Project
Descending Pathways + Spasticity
This study explore the contribution of descending motor pathways to the development of spasticity and motor recovery with the aim to implement effective rehabilitative intervention.
Research Project
Using Sensors and EMG Biofeedback to Increase Upper Limb Voluntary Output after Stroke or SCI
We combine sensors with fun, interactive computer games in order to strengthen arm muscles after stroke or SCI! Free program offered by the Perez Lab.
Research Project
Neuromodulation Clinical Trial
Rehabilitative exercise aims to engage residual neural networks in humans with spinal cord injury to improve functional recovery.
Age Range
18-80
Clinical Trial
Spasticity Assessments Research Project
The purpose of the study was to examine the contribution of passive muscle stiffness and active spinal reflex mechanisms to clinical outcomes of spasticity after SCI.
Research Project
Intracortical Inhibition in Humans with Spinal Cord Injury
This study investigates the intracortical inhibition in humans with cervical spinal cord injury. We particularly aim to understand the inhibitory mechanism for the control of upper arm muscles to further promote rehabilitation protocol.
Research Project
Spinal Cord Injury Spotlight
Established in September 2014, National Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) Awareness Month raises awareness about SCI, and the need for better treatment and education. At Shirley Ryan AbilityLab, this month also gives us an opportunity to reflect on our patients, team and community.
Meet some of our outstanding colleagues and patients as they share their reflections on what this National SCI Month means to them.
