This trial is testing a new way to help people recover arm and hand function after stroke using a brain-computer interface (BCI). The system reads your brain activity through sensors on your scalp and gives you visual feedback to guide you as you practice imitating and performing arm movements. Researchers want to see if this real-time brain feedback works better than standard practice without the feedback.
Many people struggle to regain full arm and hand function after stroke, even months or years later. This trial exists because scientists believe that brain-guided practice — where your own brain activity triggers feedback and guides your movements — may help your brain rewire itself more effectively than practice alone.

If you join this trial, you will come in for 10 training sessions, each lasting about 75 minutes. During each session, you will wear sensors on your head that read your brain activity, then follow audio cues to imagine moving your affected arm. When your brain shows the right level of activation, the system will give you visual feedback to guide you as you practice imitating and performing arm movements, first with both arms together and then in virtual reality exercises. You will also have your brain activity and arm function measured before, during, and after the training.
