NRH Neuroscience Research Center

Abstract

The NRH Neuroscience Research Center (NRC) mission is to promote and accomplish rehabilitation- related basic and applied neuroscience research. As part of this mission, the NRC: (1) develops new clinical interventions for patients with neurologically based impairments, (2) evaluates the effectiveness of new and existing rehabilitation-related interventions, (3) enhances our understanding of the neurophysiological and neuropsychological basis of impairment and disability, and (4) develops new methods to assess human function and performance. In order to be successful with our mission, the NRC is comprised of five research areas. They are as follows: a) High Resolution and Neuromotor Assessment; b) Mechanisms Underlying Recovery from Neurological Illness and Injury; c) Treatment of Neurological Diseases and Injury; d) Pilot Projects; and e) Annual Conference and Expert Panel Projects. Year 2 progress is discussed in detail in this report.
