TETRAPLEGIA/TETRAPARESIS

This early study tests a brain-computer implant that reads brain signals to help people with severe paralysis (from ALS, stroke, or spinal cord injury) communicate. The device aims to decode imagined speech and allow control of computers. Only 2 participants will be enrolled to c…

This study tests a brain implant that records and stimulates brain areas to help adults with severe paralysis (from spinal cord injury, ALS, or stroke) control assistive devices like computers or wheelchairs. The main goal is to check safety, and researchers will also see if part…

This early study tests the safety and function of a brain-computer interface (BCI) implanted by a robot in people with severe paralysis. The device aims to let users control external devices like computers or phones using their thoughts. The trial enrolls 15 adults with quadriple…

Neuralink is testing a brain-computer interface called the N1 Implant, placed by a robot, to help people with severe paralysis communicate. The study will enroll 6 adults with conditions like ALS or spinal cord injury who cannot speak or use their hands well. The main goal is to …

This early study tests whether a 10-week brain stimulation and feedback training program can strengthen the connection between the brain and wrist muscles in people with chronic cervical spinal cord injury. Eleven adults with weak wrist extension will receive non-invasive brain s…

This early-phase study tests whether pairing brain stimulation with spinal cord stimulation can strengthen the signals that control hand muscles. Researchers will study healthy volunteers, people with spinal cord injury, and those with cervical myelopathy. The goal is to understa…

This study tests whether a remote training program can help manual wheelchair users improve their skills. Researchers will train peer coaches, then enroll 132 wheelchair users to receive either remote feedback training or be placed on a waitlist. The goal is to see if remote trai…

This study explores how electrical stimulation of the spinal cord can help people with cervical spinal cord injury regain arm and hand function. Researchers will place electrodes on the spinal cord during surgery and test different stimulation patterns. The goal is to find the be…
