Robot suit and spinal zaps help paralyzed veterans take steps again

This study tests whether a combination of a wearable robot suit, electrical spinal stimulation, and muscle-strengthening exercises can help people with complete spinal cord injury walk on their own. Twenty adults with paralysis from the chest down will train for months to see if they can improve walking speed, muscle quality, and overall health. The goal is to make this technology easier to use and available to more people.
