Summary

This study tests a robotic device designed to help people with stroke, Parkinson's disease, ALS, or mild cognitive impairment improve their arm and hand function. Thirty adults will receive standard rehabilitation, and half will also use the robot for up to 30 minutes per session. Researchers will check if the device is safe, easy to use, and whether it leads to better motor skills and quality of life compared to therapy alone.

What this could lead to

If it works, this could provide a new, safe way to improve arm function and quality of life for people with neurological conditions.
