Walking is a locomotor task that integrates information from all over the nervous system. The lumbosacral spinal cord houses neural networks that contribute to locomotion. These networks dominate locomotor activity during development and may provide suitable targets for restoring function after...

The overall goal of this work was to design an intelligent method to reduce the cognitive and physical burdens associated with walking using lower-limb exoskeletons after paralysis. Lower-limb exoskeletons with many operating modes (i.e., walking patterns) can be challenging to work with....

Towards Clinical Testing of Intraspinal Microstimulation for Restoration of Walking after Spinal Cord Injury
DownloadSpring 2019
The overall goal of this thesis was to advance intraspinal microstimulation (ISMS) towards clinical testing for the purpose of restoring walking after spinal cord injury. ISMS implants focus on restoring mobility after spinal cord injury by activating the intact spinal motor networks below the...
