Summary

This study tested whether a brain-computer interface (BCI) that uses brain signals to trigger muscle stimulation can help stroke survivors regain arm movement. 84 people with arm weakness after a stroke participated for about 4 months. The goal was to see if this approach improves arm function and promotes brain recovery.
