In Progress (Apr 2018)

The FES-ABLE project results from an Iberian partnership in collaboration with the highest technological center of Europe, Tecnália.  The project aims to evaluate the impact of an intervention based on a FES prototype on the upper limb movement quality during functional tasks. The results will contribute to the definition of the therapeutic window of FES to improve upper limb function in stroke rehabilitation.
