Description: The lab of Arthur Prochazka, whose research focuses on routing electrical current from surface electrodes to deep-lying nerves using implanted conductors. His research mostly focuses on muscle physiology. Current fields of research: * Stimulus Router System: A new family of implanted neuroprostheses. It comprises an implanted lead that picks up some of the current delivered through the skin by a surface stimulator and delivers it to a target nerve via a nerve cuff. The SRS has the advantages of an implanted stimulator: selectivity, reproducibility and convenience, at a fraction of the cost * Bionic Glove: Hand opening and closing stimulator for C5-C6 tetraplegic people. It is based on Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES). * In-home Telerehabilitation: Providing exercise sessions over the internet. * Interactive Receptor Model: An online model explaining muscle spindles and tendon organs. * Spinal Motoneuron Activity During Gait * Robocats: Mathematical models for locomotion. * Rigidity Analyzer: A better means of assessing rigidity. * General Research: Fundamental questions in our field of neurophysiology. * Spinal Cord Microstimulation: Restoring bladder function after spinal cord injury.
