Neurorestoration Programs & Clinical Trials

Cortimo

Coritmo is a study to learn if brain implants connected to a powered upper extremity orthosis can help stroke patients overcome abnormal movement and restore abilities. The Cortimo comprises an implanted brain activity sensor and a wearable powered arm orthosis. 

Bench Neuroscience

We are developing novel electrophysiological techniques to interface with 3D neural specimens in real-time. In addition to functioning as an in vitro test bed for brain-computer interfaces, neural specimens grown on 3D multi-electrode arrays may function like computational components in their own right to advance knowledge discovery.

Kintracker

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of collecting objective kinematic and physiological data in healthy adults and in a clinical cohort of people who were being seen in outpatient Neurosurgery, Psychiatry, or Neurology clinics at Jefferson.

NuroBike

Recumbent Powered Bicycle with Electrical Stimulation for Adults with Leg Paralysis or Paresis.

Publications

Leaders in the field, our faculty publishes their research to share and collaborate with other researchers.

Collaborators

The Center partners and collaborates with fellow Jefferson, Moss-Magee Rehab, colleagues and other centers.
