Delivering feedback of trailing limb ankle in a powered ankle exoskeleton

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.

Integrative Pain Management in Community Health Centers Study

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.
