Cortical Processes During Walking Post-stroke

The study aims to use novel mobile imaging techniques with high-density electroencephalography (EEG) to quantify cortical processes synchronized to the biomechanics of walking. Here, the study has two aims - the primary aim is to quantify the cortical processes that contribute to gait dysfunction early post-stroke, and the second aim is to determine how cortical processes are mediated by mechanical assistance during early gait training post-stroke.

Participants will wear an electroencephalography (EEG) cap to measure brain activity and other non-invasive physiological sensors. Participants will be asked to perform different tasks, such as walking at different speeds and walking with different levels of body weight support.
