PROJECTS
We run several research projects in each of the five research areas of our laboratory: Aging, Exercise, Neuroplasticity, Neurorehabilitation and Sleep. Some of these projects involve people without disability while other projects require the participation of people with neurological conditions such as Stroke, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease.
We are also running several rehabilitation patient training programs which can be joined by patients to improve their physical well-being. Training sessions are free and clinicians and researchers are always on site to monitor patient’s progression and to ensure their safety.
This project explores the role of exercise intensity on brain plasticity, cardiovascular health and motor function in people with chronic stroke.

Besides helping science move forward, your participation in our studies may help patients to recover better. We provide small honoraria to cover for parking and transportation costs.
