I'd really like to know how to get in touch with one of these studies, my sister had a stroke in her mid 20's and her left arm is completely dead. She's completely given up on life considering she used to work with her hands, I just wish there was something to give that back to her.

The contact information for one of the lead scientists of the study is at the bottom of this page:

They might be interested in finding participants for future case studies. It can't hurt to try.

I sent an email, not sure if they'll read it or reply but here's hoping.

It's an exciting time to be alive with so many new medical procedures becoming available lately - tell her to never lose hope!

You can also check out this therapy: https://www.myndtec.com/clinicians/myndmove-therapy/ I'm not sure how widely available it is yet but it seems to be effective in similar cases.

These clinical trials are happening all over the country so keep looking even if you can’t get in touch with these authors.
