Improving Arm Movement After Stroke Using Wearable Device
The Slutzky Neuroprosthetics Lab Team is evaluating a new rehab therapy using wearable devices and a video game interface to improve arm movement after stroke.
Research Project
Communication Building with Brain-Machine Interface
BMIs have been able to restore basic communication by allowing patients to slowly spell out individual letters by decoding particular signals, most commonly evoked potentials in response to some stimulus.
Research Project
Brain-Machine Interfacing for Hand and Arm Movement
The ultimate goal of this project is to restore hand and arm function to people with paralysis from neurological disorders. Brain machine interfaces - BMIs, which decode electrical signals recorded from the brain, offer one way to bypass the area causing paralysis and intuitively reanimate paralyzed muscles via electrical stimulation.
Research Project
A Pilot Investigation to Determine if Pathogens are Present on Gel Liners Worn by Amputees
This project will explore the correlation of potentially harmful bacteria to various liner conditions such as age of the liner, material properties, and patient hygiene practices.

Using transcranial magnetic stimulation, peripheral nerve stimulation, and exercise to expedite recovery from cervical spinal cord injury.
Research Project
Clinical Trial: Time Distribution of Computer-Based Script Training in Aphasia
The purpose of this project is to conduct a series of intervention studies to examine the rate and extent to which persons with aphasia learn and subsequently forget, following one or more treatment sessions.
Research Project
Evaluation of the effectiveness of robotic gait training and gait-focused physical therapy programs for children and youth with cerebral palsy: A mixed methods RCT
This study consists of a randomized control trial (RCT) and a qualitative study.
Research Project
Preventing Nerve Injuries Acquired in the ICU by Patients with Severe COVID
A new study published in the October 2022 issue of the Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation from a research team led by SRAlab clinicians identified the cause of — and hope for a potential prevention of — nerve injuries in patients treated in the intensive care unit for severe COVID-19.
Research Project
Reconstructive Surgery for People with Spinal Cord Injury
The Journal of Neurophysiology recently published a review by Adenike Adewuyi, MD PhD — a 2022 graduate of Shirley Ryan 汤头条app’s physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R) residency program — and her mentor, Colin Franz, MD, PhD, physician-scientist, at Shirley Ryan 汤头条app. The review defines a clinical framework for evaluating patients with spinal cord injuries to determine their candidacy for nerve transfer surgery.
Research Project
A Conversation on Supporting Employees Who Acquire Disabilities Webinar
A panelist shares his own experience of working before and after acquiring a disability including his perspectives on how to successfully navigate corporate policies and practices. Panelists share resources and information on how to successfully support return to work on job retention for individuals with disabilities.
