This trial tests whether deep brain stimulation (DBS) targeting the cerebellum is safe and feasible for people with spinocerebellar ataxia types 1 and 3, a group of inherited disorders that cause progressive problems with movement and coordination. The study will enroll 12 adults…

This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial temporal interference stimulation (tTIS) in people with spinocerebellar ataxia type 3, a genetic condition that affects coordination and balance. The stimulation targets a deep brain region involved i…

This Phase 2 trial tests whether umbilical cord stem cells can safely improve movement and coordination in people with spinocerebellar ataxia (types 1, 2, 3, and 6). Forty-five participants will receive the cells through an IV and a spinal injection. The main goal is to see if sy…

This study looks at whether high-intensity walking training can help people with cerebellar damage (a part of the brain that controls balance and coordination) improve their walking ability. Twenty participants will either do intense walking exercises or standard training. The go…

This study will compare how well an AI program (Blings) measures speech clarity in 40 adults with speech disorders from stroke or other neurological conditions. Two speech therapists will also rate the same speech samples. The goal is to see if the AI can reliably replace or assi…
