Wheelchair-Based, Robotic, Upper Extremity Exercise and Power- Assisted Propulsion
Develop a robotic, power-assist lever drive for a manual wheelchair that people with severe upper extremity impairment can use to both exercise and ambulate.
Research Project
Application of Avatar Systems
This project aims at creating 3D environments where patients experience virtual representations of exercise motion through the use of motion detection sensors.
Research Project
Error augmentation in 2 and 3 dimesions
Rather than helping someone move, we rely on the aspects of neuroplasticity in the brain to facilitate learning to move, or re-learning after an injury.

Ryan's Story: Surviving a Stroke at 20
Ryan survived a stroke when he was just 20. After months of therapy, he has made an incredible recovery. He has learned to walk and has improved hand function.
Patient Story
An Exploration of Acute Intermittent Hypoxia as a tool to Enhance Neural Recovery in Stroke Survivors; a pilot safety study.
This is a Phase I safety study. Our plan consists of dose-escalation exposures with continual assessment of hypoxic conditioning impact in individuals with chronic stroke.
Clinical Trial
Wearable Sensors for Stroke Recovery
Dr. Arun Jayaraman is collaborating on an interdisciplinary project using wearable sensors to help track patients' recovery from stroke.

Tracking spasticity in acute stroke
The proposed experiments use well-defined protocols with minimal risk from chronic stroke survivor research to test the monosynaptic reflex and TVR responses. We also gather clinical data in the acute and chronic stroke survivors.
Research Project
The effect of botox on the hyperexcitability of the stretch reflex in spasticity
The objective of this study is to measure the electrical activity of single muscle fibers and to determine how this electrical activity changes after botulinum toxin injections.
