Employment for People with Parkinson’s Disease: Team-Based Strategies and Resources Webinar
Because rehabilitation counselors are not available for all people with PD, this webinar will share information that the interdisciplinary team can use to guide people with PD to constructively address employment challenges.
Research Project
Modeling effects of common genetic polymorphisms on peripheral nerve injury recovery
Every year, over 200,000 Americans sustain a peripheral nerve injury (PNI). Although peripheral nerves have the ability to spontaneously regenerate, 90% of PNI patients do not regain full motor function. Despite ongoing research, the main treatment for peripheral nerve injury—surgery— continues to be performed without the assistance of any medication or other therapies to enhance the rate of axon regrowth.
Research Project
Electrical stimulation and Botox combination therapy to enhance peripheral nerve regeneration after injury
This project combines two treatments for advancement in peripheral nerve injury to regenerate damaged tissues with Botox and eSTIM.
Research Project
Real Time Control of a Powered Prosthetic Leg Using Implanted EMG Signals with Sensory Feedback
We will conduct a first-in-human clinical trial to evaluate the effect of incorporating intramuscular EMG signals (obtained using a fully wireless implantable system), compared to surface EMG signals, on function ambulation and non-weight-bearing control of a powered leg prosthesis.
Research Project
Intuitively Controlled Virtual Reality System to Treat Phantom Limb Pain
We will develop a commercially viable VR rehabilitation system (called the Coapt PLP Management System) which can be deployed at home or in-clinic for individuals with upper or lower limb amputations.
Research Project
Clinical Trial: Intuitive Control of a Hybrid Prosthetic Leg During Ambulation
A lightweight powered prosthesis with a safe, intuitive control system.
Research Project
COMPLETE: Sensor Technologies Applied to Rehabilitation in Stroke
Our research program focuses on the pivotal role of clinicians and therapists in implementing routine rehabilitation care, and on enhancing their capacity to provide evidence-based, individualized, and precise therapy.
Research Project
Promoting Patient-Centered Care through use of Standardized Assessments
KT DRRP is a grant supported research project involving a cooperative of research scientists and researchers joined for the advancement of science.
Research Project
Sleep of Inpatients: Empower Staff to Act for Acute Stroke Rehabilitation (SIESTA)
A multidisciplinary group of researchers will adapt, implement and evaluate a state-of-the-art intervention to promote sleep for stroke patients undergoing acute rehabilitation.

Research Project
COMPLETE: Safety and Efficacy of Samsung GEMS-H Device Training in Sub-Acute and Chronic Stroke
The purpose of this research is to determine the effects of gait training with the Samsung
GEMS-H device on walking, balance, nervous system activity, and quality of life in individuals with sub-acute and chronic stroke.
GEMS-H device on walking, balance, nervous system activity, and quality of life in individuals with sub-acute and chronic stroke.
Research Project
Näder Lab: Assessment and Monitoring of Neuromotor Function through Advanced Dynamic Pose Estimation
We will use videos of people with Parkinson's disease (PD) doing different things to develop sophisticated computer programs that can detect specific movement patterns that are only seen in people with PD. We will then see how well our computer programs can diagnose early PD, compared with medical and clinical professionals.
