He holds equity positions in Bionik Laboratories, Watertown, MA a company that manufacturers this type of technology under license to MIT. Massachusetts Institute of Technology Fashion or Need? Stroke In the US 795, strokes every year economic burden of $73.7 billion for 21 7% of the survivors need therapy total of 6 Million stroke survivors In Europe 9, strokes every year In Japan 21, strokes every year In Brazil Number #1 cause of death Introduction AHA Guidelines UE Robotics LE Robotics State of the Art in UE Paradigm Shift in Neuroscience Myth and Legend: Traditional care assumes that brain is hardwired and cannot recover once sensorimotor areas are destroyed Reality: New understanding: after stroke and other neurological injuries plasticity occurs and might accounts for remapping of new pathways 1

2 Hardwired Since the 1928 work of Santiago Ramón y Cajal, famed neuroscientist, the prevailing assumption has been that the central nervous system is hardwired, non malleable, and incapable of repairing itself. Clinicians have selected compensation as a rehabilitation strategy for non remediable deficits of strength, voluntary motor control, sensation, and balance. Rationale for Restorative Efforts and Training in Stroke Recovery: Animal Models for Activity Dependent Plasticity Nudo et al., Science; 1996 Paradigm Shift in Neuroscience Myth and Legend: Traditional care assumes that brain is hardwired and cannot recover once sensorimotor areas are destroyed Reality: New understanding: after stroke and other neurological injuries plasticity occurs and might accounts for remapping of new pathways 2
