Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation Restores Hand and Arm Function After Spinal Cord Injury [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2021 Paralysis of the upper extremity severely restricts independence and quality of life after spinal cord injury. Regaining control of hand and arm movements is the highest treatment priority for people with paralysis, 6-fold higher than restoring walking ability.

Transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation of the cervical cord modulates lumbar networks [PDF]
Journal of Neurophysiology, 2020 It has been established that coordinated arm and leg (A&L) cycling facilitates corticospinal drive and modulation of cervico-lumbar connectivity and ultimately improves overground walking in people with incomplete spinal cord injury or stroke.

Epidural spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is currently regarded as a breakthrough procedure for enabling movement after spinal cord injury (SCI), yet one of its original applications was for spinal spasticity. An emergent method that activates similar target neural structures non-invasively is transcutaneous SCS.

A previous study by our group showed preliminary results showcasing the usage of optimal and individualized spinal cord transcutaneous stimulation (scTS) parameters during overground gait training to facilitate more repeatable gait kinematics profiles for one participant with an incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI). The goal of this study was to use the

Automated Selectivity-Driven Algorithm for Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation
2025 International Conference On Rehabilitation Robotics (ICORR)Spinal cord injury (SCI) impairs motor function and quality of life. Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation (tSCS) is a non-invasive method to restore motor function by activating spinal circuits below the lesion. However, its effectiveness is limited by individual variability, reliance on manual electrode placement, and offline muscle analysis.
