This federal Project Grant award, valued at $243,000.00 and funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under CFDA 93.865 "Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research", supports research to track the development and influence of post-stroke sensory reweighting on walking and balance outcomes. The research, conducted by the University of Cincinnati, aims to identify physiologic and neuroanatomic correlates in the earlier stages of recovery...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) provides $148,568 to the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, doing business as Shirley Ryan AbilityLab, to investigate neuromodulatory strategies for improving paretic leg motor control during walking in individuals with stroke. The key research aims are to: (1) determine the effects of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation with...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), provides $1,379,072 to Northwestern University to develop an innovative myoelectric interface for neurorehabilitation (MINT) system to improve post-stroke gait. The key objectives of this 5-year project are to: 1) create a robust, wireless MINT system with engaging games; 2) test the impact of MINT...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), provides $439,255.00 in funding to the University of Illinois to conduct a study titled "Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation to Facilitate Perturbation-Based Reactive Balance Training for Fall-Risk Reduction Post-Stroke: The REACTplusNMES Trial." The study aims to improve fall prevention...
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a 2-year, $160,000 Project Grant (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) to Northwestern University to conduct research on mapping motor control pathways in the brain and spinal cord of individuals with chronic hemiparetic stroke. The objective is to generate a novel fMRI dataset to directly evaluate the use of the corticospinal tract (CST) versus the cortico-reticulospinal tract (CRST)...
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $1,997,297 Project Grant (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) to the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, doing business as Shirley Ryan AbilityLab. The grant aims to develop a sensitive and specific fall screening protocol for lower limb prosthetic users that utilizes gait and kinematic analysis from markerless motion capture. The project will evaluate fall risk predictors from...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $346,369 will fund the development of a novel gait training method for individuals after stroke from October 1, 2022 to September 30, 2025. The funding supports Syracuse University under the NSF Engineering Directorate's program to improve quality of life and economic strength through engineering innovation. Specifically, the grant will advance knowledge on enhancing muscle power and propulsion, a key barrier to improved walking after stroke. The...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), supports research to design and evaluate a novel variable stiffness orthosis (VSO) device for patients with foot drop. The $232,230 award, effective from December 1, 2024 to March 13, 2027, aims to incorporate a cam-based transmission into the VSO design to allow for decoupled energy storage and return,...
This Project Grant award of $543,172 from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) will fund a 2-year study to quantify trunk control and muscle coordination during walking in individuals with incomplete spinal cord injury (ISCI). The primary objectives are to: 1) Test the hypothesis that individuals with ISCI demonstrate impaired coordination of trunk movements during walking, and 2) Test the hypothesis...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) provides $584,259 to Emory University to develop and evaluate a family-centered telerehabilitation intervention for stroke survivors. The "Carepartner and Collaborative Integrated Therapy (CARE-CITE)" program aims to optimize stroke recovery by engaging carepartners to support continued...
