- ROBOT REHAB
- MEDICINESMALL, LIGHTWEIGHT robotic devices are proving to be valuable tools in helping stroke victims regain movement in damaged nerve cells. Therapists have long relied on repetitive training, which "teaches" other neurons to take over for the damaged ones. But most patients stop improving after three months. Now mechanical engineers at...
