We are participating in the Home Users study with Wadsworth involving BCI for individuals with ALS in the Philadelphia area.
Do you know how far they are from Philadelphia? If they are not too far, I would be happy to be in contact with them. If they are further toward DC, then I agree with Debra that Theresa Vaughan is the person to contact. (She is with the Wadsworth Center in Albany, New York.) She will also have more information on the VA study.

The information about the study we are participating in is on clinicaltrials.gov.

Thanks,
Sara

Hello everyone,

I have a PALS looking to participate in a brain computer interface (BCI) study in the Baltimore/DC area.  Has anyone ever heard about an opportunity in that area or know how these types of studies usually advertise for volunteers?  Any information would be helpful.  Thanks!
