Susan Schwerin | 2006
PhD in Neuroscience
The Role of Contralateral and Ipsilateral Descending
Motor Pathways in the Expression of Abnormal Coordination
Patterns in the Upper Extremity of Hemiparetic Chronic
Stroke Subjects. |
Anthony L. Ricamato | 2000
PhD in Biomedical Engineering
Quantitative relations between electrical brain activity
and upper limb torque generation in human subjects. |

Arno Stienen | 2008 | Predoctoral Fellow
By quantifying multi-joint upper-extremity movement control, I strive to elucidate the neural connections between abnormal muscle couplings and spasticity, both of which are often observed in individuals with stroke but their interactions seldom correctly understood. |
Joanna Clair
| 2008 | Predoctoral Fellow
Currently I am working on a project in the area of human
neuromuscular electrical stimulation. I am investigating
the role sensory feedback, evoked by the stimulation,
has on motoneuron excitability after stroke. |
Thierry
Keller | 2004 | Principal Investigator
My research interests are in the fields of rehabilitation
engineering, neural prostheses, signal processing and
human-machine interaction. I have developed various
neuroprostheses that are used to improve walking and
grasping functions in spinal cord injured and stroke
subjects. |
