The HEROES Project, funded by the Hellenic Foundation for Research and Innovation and the NeuroSuitUp project are revolutionizing neurorehabilitation for stroke and spinal cord injury patients. By harnessing neuroplasticity through man-machine interfaces, we aim to enhance recovery and improve outcomes.
This symposium marked a milestone for the HEROES Project, with the completion of development and validation and the imminent commencement of clinical trials. Exciting discussions between the research team and patient organizations have paved the way for tailored, patient-centric enhancements.
We are grateful for everyone's participation and look forward to making a meaningful impact in the lives of those affected by stroke and spinal cord injuries.
Stay tuned for more updates on our journey towards redefining rehabilitation!
