Summary
This study tests a non-drug treatment for people with ALS, especially veterans, who have hand weakness. The approach uses timed electrical pulses to the brain and spinal cord to strengthen nerve connections to hand muscles. Over 32 participants will receive a personalized two-week program of paired stimulation, with or without hand exercises, to see if it improves hand strength and dexterity.
