UK Biomedical Engineering Study - Volunteers needed

Volunteers Needed

Brain-Machine Interface to Assist in Motor Recovery from Spinal Cord Injury


If you had an incomplete SCI over a year ago that has affected your ability to use your arm and/or hand, and you are 18 years of age or older, you are invited to participate in the following research study.

The study is noninvasive and painless, and will involve:

1. Recording of brain signals from electrodes on your scalp while you
perform a repetitive hand grip task.

2. Brief peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) in response to changes
detected in your brain signals by a brain-machine interface.

Each visit will take about 2 hours. You may be requested to come in for multiple sessions on different days. You will be compensated for your time.

If you are interested, please call Dr. Lumy Sawaki (859-323-6226) or Sridhar Sunderam (859-257-5796) and ask about the BMI study.
