Robotic technologies have profoundly affected the identification of fundamental properties of
brain function. This success is attributable to robots being able to control the position of or …

Real-world actions require one to simultaneously perceive, think, and act on the surrounding
world, requiring the integration of (bottom-up) sensory information and (top-down) cognitive …

Background. Impairment of position sense of the upper extremity (UE) may impede activities
of daily living and limit motor gains after stroke. Most clinical assessments of position sense …

In this study, the virtual reality (VR) proprioception rehabilitation system was developed for
stroke patients to use proprioception feedback in upper limb rehabilitation by blocking visual …

Objective: To systematically review the psychometric properties and clinical utility of
measures of sensation in neurological conditions to inform future research studies and …

Background Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a useful modality for pain
control. TENS has recently been applied to decrease spasticity. The purpose of this study is …

Abnormal within and across-joint synergistic behaviors have been reported in the lower limb
post stroke. It is unknown, however, whether these impairments limit adaptive movement …

Promoting functional recovery after stroke requires collaborative and innovative approaches
to neurorehabilitation research. Task-oriented training (TOT) approaches that include …

Background Proprioceptive sense (knowing where the limbs are in space) is critical for
motor control during posture and walking, and is often compromised after spinal cord injury …

It is well recognized that the brain uses sensory information to accurately produce motor
commands. Indeed, most research into the relationship between sensory and motor systems …
