Robots and video games aim to retrain brains after neurological damage

This study is testing if a new type of physical therapy using robotic arms and video game-like exercises can help improve both thinking skills and arm movement in adults with Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, or who have had a stroke. Researchers want to see if this high-tech approach works better than standard physical therapy. About 189 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the robotic training or conventional therapy for 25 sessions over a few months.
