Comparing Intact and Residual Amputated Muscle

Summary

Lower limb amputees rely on their prosthetic to remain active and lead an independent life. In recent years, measuring residual muscle activity has been used to interpret a user's intent and thereby modulate prosthesis control. However, little knowledge is held on how residual muscle activity differs from non-amputated muscle. The research team will analyze and compare neuromuscular physiology in non-amputee individuals and amputees' non-amputated and residual muscles across functional tasks to better understand how amputees control their muscles. Such information will inform design of modern prosthesis controllers.
