Summary
This study is testing whether a non-invasive electrical stimulation on the neck, combined with physical training, can help people with spinal cord injuries regain the ability to reach and grasp with their hands. It will involve veterans with chronic neck-level injuries and healthy volunteers. Researchers aim to see if this tailored stimulation can improve muscle strength and hand function during specific tasks.
