In the researchers' words
To explore the neurophysiological and electroencephalography (EEG) changes that one single session of tDCS and robotics has in the SCI population (Study 1); and to investigate upper limb motor recovery in chronic tetraplegia SCI patients, comparing two rehabilitation strategies: real or sham tDCS combined with upper-limb robotic therapy (Study 2), as well as to characterize the neurophysiological (TMS) and brain signaling (EEG) profile of patients and specific muscles that respond to the combination of neuromodulation and robotic motor training.
