New Clinical Trial to Test Sensory Prostheses for People with Upper-Limb Loss

“People with upper-limb-loss deserve to have better technologies that can improve their lives.”

A $9.9M grant has been awarded to CWRU researchers to advance prosthetic technology. Led by Emily Graczyk with Dustin Tyler as co-investigator, the team will launch a clinical trial of sensory-enabled prosthetic hands for people with upper-limb loss. This exciting work uses implanted electrodes to restore touch, making prosthetic hands feel more natural and connected. The trial will compare traditional devices with the iSens neuroprosthesis, aiming to transform independence and quality of life.
