Summary

This study tests whether a brain stimulation training can strengthen the connections between the brain, spinal cord, and muscles in people with chronic cervical spinal cord injury. Researchers will enroll 15 adults with incomplete injuries at or above C6 who are at least one year post-injury. The training involves 42 visits over 14 weeks, using transcranial magnetic stimulation to measure and potentially improve movement function.
