In the researchers' words
The purpose of this study is to establish the value of combined non-invasive stimulation (tDCS) and behavioral training (robotics) in SCI rehabilitation, and understand the mechanisms of this interaction and its relationship to functional outcome. The investigators hypothesize that supplementary tDCS will augment the functional improvement from robot-training, in chronic SCI.
