About this listen

Dr. Christos Papadelis shares the strides made by robotic rehabilitation for children with cerebral palsy at Cook Children's. His team uses the Amadeo system, which improves upper extremity functions through video games. The project focuses on children with congenital hemiplegia and is showing significant improvements in finger motion and dexterity after only 15 consecutive days of training. Listen up to discover what’s on the horizon as we understand more about neuroplasticity and the potential for broader applications in both upper and lower extremities.
