The National Science Foundation awarded New York University a $100,000 Project Grant under the Engineering (47.041) federal grant program. The grant will support the development of a robust, reliable biomarker for assessing post-stroke motor recovery. Specifically, NYU will design and validate a noninvasive biomarker quantifying the directional information exchange between brain and muscle regions after a stroke. This will be accomplished through analyzing cortical sources involved in sensorimotor processing and their connectivity to muscle motor units. Cortico-muscular biomarkers will be established to predict motor performance and mobility for stroke patients. Reliability analyses and validation with independent datasets will also be conducted. If successful, this biomarker could serve as the first regulatory science tool for the FDA's review of post-stroke rehabilitation devices. The grant also includes STEM education components engaging underrepresented students in biomedical research seminars and undergraduate projects.
