Neurorehabilitation Research Laboratory

Researchers in the lab are studying the neurophysiology and pathophysiology of sensory and motor functions at the system level in healthy subjects and in patients with neurological impairments using a variety of stimulation methods – transcranial magnetic stimulation; transcranial direct current stimulation; peripheral electrical, thermal and acoustic stimulation; and BreEStim. Their goal is to develop interventions that facilitate recovery of sensory and motor function after neurological impairments in patients with post-stroke spasticity, neuropathic pain after spinal cord injury and amputation.
