neuromodulation, is the use of low-level electrical currents to either generate or suppress activity in the nervous system.<\/p>\n<p>Our cross-disciplinary team is dedicated to the work of using FES techniques to develop products and processes that can be used clinically to give greater quality of life and functionality to people with disabilities.<\/p>\n<p>Through FES, small, artificially generated low-level electrical pulses are safely and selectively applied to the central or peripheral nervous system to replace the actions of neurons that have been damaged by injury or disease.<\/p>\n<p>When applied appropriately, FES can \u201cspeak the language of the nervous system\u201d and evoke desired actions by both activation and inactivation of various elements of the nervous system (e.g., peripheral nerves, spinal cord, brain).<\/p>\n<p>For the last thirty years, we have gathered some of the brightest minds in science and medicine who, through our research and development process, have become leaders in translating the principles of FES into clinical practice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Learn about our
