Our team at the Boston University Neuromotor Recovery Laboratory (NRL) works to develop, test, and translate rehabilitation technologies and interventions. We are scientists, clinicians, and engineers skilled in the planning and execution of development-focused research projects and hypothesis-driven experiments. We collaborate with clinical and industry partners to transform our research discoveries into tools, technologies, and interventions that can restore movement, improve health, and elevate the quality of life of people with neuromotor impairments.
