Study Summary

The Long-term goal of this project is to develop upper limb rehabilitation interventions that can be utilized for cervical Spinal Cord Injury survivors. This Study will utilize a novel method of non-invasive brain stimulation in conjunction with upper limb training given for 15 sessions over several weeks up to 8 weeks. The Study will include the following site visits: * Eligibility Screening and Informed Consent Visit. * Four testing visit in which motor function of the upper limb and neurophysiology will be measured * Fifteen intervention visits during which patients will receive upper limb training in conjunction with non-invasive brain stimulation * Repeat testing of motor function and neurophysiology of the upper limb following completion of intervention visits * a Follow-up visit completed 3 months after the completion of interventions

Primary Outcome

UEMS is used in Spinal Cord injury to identify strength (muscle power) in patients with spinal cord injury. It involves a manual muscle test of five key muscles in each arm graded from 0 (no contraction) to 5 (normal strength). Each Arm can have a max score of 25 and the total score for the test is 50 points. The higher the value the more muscle strength the participant has and a higher change score means more improvement. The sum of scores for both arms is reported here.

Interventions
