Karen Minassian is co-author of the article “Activity-dependent spinal cord neuromodulation rapidly restores trunk and leg motor functions after complete paralysis” published in Nature Medicine.
In this article, the authors show how individualized computer simulations and specifically developed stimulation technologies enable individuals with spinal cord injury to stand, walk, cycle, swim and control trunk movements – within the first application and also in community settings.
The new article in nature medicine is reported in many media outlets.
