Ischaemic stroke involves the rapid onset of focal neurological dysfunction, most commonly
due to an arterial blockage in a specific region of the brain. Stroke is a leading cause of …

Stroke remains the leading cause of long-term disability with limited options available to aid
in recovery. Significant effort has been made to try and minimize neuronal damage following …

Environmental enrichment (EE) has been widely used as a means to enhance brain
plasticity mechanisms (eg, increased dendritic branching, synaptogenesis, etc.) and improve …

Cognitive impairment is an important target for rehabilitation as it is common following
