Multi-focal Stimulation of the Cortico-cerebellar Loop During the Acquisition of a Novel Hand Motor Skill in Chronic Stroke Survivors

Manon Chloé Durand-Ruel, Pablo Maceira Elvira, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Takuya Morishita, Maximilian Jonas Wessel, Laurijn Rianne Draaisma, Philipp Johannes Koch

Impairment of hand motor function is a frequent consequence after a stroke and strongly determines the ability to regain a self-determined life. An influential research strategy for improving motor deficits is the combined application of behavioral trainin ...

SPRINGER HEIDELBERG2022

Toward individualized medicine in stroke-The TiMeS project: Protocol of longitudinal, multi-modal, multi-domain study in stroke

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Olaf Blanke, Philip Egger, Sylvain Jean-François Harquel, Silvestro Micera, Nathalie Heidi Meyer, Elena Beanato, Valérie Rita Madeleine Zufferey, Gabriel Girard, Julia Brügger, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Takuya Morishita, Maximilian Jonas Wessel, Philipp Johannes Koch, Estelle Emeline Raffin, Andéol Geoffroy Cadic-Melchior, Traian Popa, Pauline Menoud, Lisa Aïcha Mireille Julie Fleury

Despite recent improvements, complete motor recovery occurs in < 15% of stroke patients. To improve the therapeutic outcomes, there is a strong need to tailor treatments to each individual patient. However, there is a lack of knowledge concerning the preci ...

The structural connectome and motor recovery after stroke: predicting natural recovery

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Philip Egger, Elena Beanato, Gabriel Girard, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Takuya Morishita, Maximilian Jonas Wessel, Philipp Johannes Koch, Giorgia Giulia Evangelista, Chang-Hyun Park

Stroke patients vary considerably in terms of outcomes: some patients present ‘natural’ recovery proportional to their initial impairment (fitters), while others do not (non-fitters). Thus, a key challenge in stroke rehabilitation is to identify individual ...

Disconnectomics of the Rich Club Impacts Motor Recovery After Stroke

Philip Egger, Elena Beanato, Gabriel Girard, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Philipp Johannes Koch, Giorgia Giulia Evangelista, Chang-Hyun Park

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Structural brain networks possess a few hubs, which are not only highly connected to the rest of the brain but are also highly connected to each other. These hubs, which form a rich-club, play a central role in global brain organiza ...
