Recruitment of upper-limb motoneurons with epidural electrical stimulation of the cervical spinal cord

Recruitment of upper-limb motoneurons with epidural electrical stimulation of the cervical spinal cord

The efficacy of epidural electrical stimulation (EES) to engage arm muscles and improve movement after spinal cord injury is still unclear. Here, the authors investigated how EES can recruit upper-limb motor neurons by combining computational modelling with experiments in non-human primates.
