Persons with stroke suffer limited walking distances due to sensory and motor changes following injury. Robotic exoskeletons have become a recent topic of study, specifically to the ankle joint to provide walking assistance and enable those to walk for longer distances. However, no study has investigated how to teach persons to use these assistive devices to greatest benefit. This study aims to determine the optimal settings and feedback with an ankle exoskeleton in order to teach a person with a stroke to use the device optimally.
The purpose of this research study is to understand how a physical activity program for family members and friends can help improve their physical activity and possibly improve the symptoms of Hispanics/Latinos with osteoarthritis.

The purpose of this study is to identify barriers and facilitators to the implementation of integrative medical group visits (IMGV) for patients with chronic pain in safety-net healthcare settings. IMGV is one of few integrative pain management programs designed specifically for low-income populations. By understanding what it takes to make these programs successful or not, we aim to test strategies to implement IMGV widely in safety-net settings. The goal is to make integrative pain management more accessible to low-income patients.
The purpose of this study is to identify and genomically-characterize individuals with genetically unexplained neurodevelopmental disorders, such as epilepsy. The overarching goal is to provide patients with improved information about the underlying genetic basis of their disorder and illuminate novel genetically-defined treatment approaches in the future.
In this study, we want to learn more about mental health stigma and mental health history. We also would like to learn about how these factors affect a person's willingness to participate in therapy.
There are 3 different non-invasive devices that are used to test how stiff your arteries are. We want to learn if these devices give us similar measurements. This will allow us to compare data across different devices, which will assist with future research.
