RELEARN
Summary
This study examines how people's motor learning may differ after a stroke. It is also important to retain motor learning so we examine people's memory/retention of the tasks. This study also examines sensory and motor learning differences of healthy controls of all ages to gather if there are differences as we age. We utilize a robotics exoskeleton called a KINARM to examine the upper limb mobility of participants. During the study you will complete some reaching tasks and games in the KINARM. Our hope is to better understand motor learning of the general population and of those suffering from a stroke so that in the future we may be able to cater rehabilitation to each individual.
