All

This study investigates the use of a brain-computer interface (BCI) to control a power wheelchair. A BCI is a system that allows the brain to communicate with external devices, which can be helpful for people who cannot use a joystick to operate a wheelchair.

Participants will take part in two sessions. In the first session, they will perform a simple computer task while their physiological data is recorded. In the second session, they will test the accuracy of the BCI system using the data collected from the first session.

  • Who can participate: Participants must be native English speakers. They should not be taking medications for cardiac conditions or blood pressure regulation. Exclusion criteria include having a pacemaker, epilepsy, or a recent concussion. Those who have been hospitalized for a head injury or major surgery in the past year, or who are prone to hives, should not participate.
  • Study details: Participants will engage in computer tasks and test a brain-computer interface system in two sessions. A placebo is not involved in this study.
  • Study Visits: The study requires 2 visits.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?
