Mind-Controlled walking therapy shows promise for stroke recovery

This study tested a new therapy that uses a brain-computer interface to help people who had a stroke improve their walking. Participants imagined moving their legs while a computer read their brain signals and triggered electrical stimulation and virtual reality feedback. The study compared this brain-controlled approach to standard therapy without the brain-reading cap. The goal was to see if the brain-controlled method was safe and more effective at improving walking speed and mobility.
