First seen Mar 14, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This study looks at how the brain controls arm movement after a stroke and how rehabilitation therapy changes those brain pathways. Fifty people who had a stroke 3 to 6 months ago and have moderate to severe arm weakness will either receive 30 hours of specialized arm training or usual care. Researchers will use brain scans and movement tests before and after therapy to understand how the brain recovers.
