Innovations in Stroke Recovery and Rehabilitation

Despite improvements in acute stroke management, many stroke survivors remain with substantial disability. Efforts to more effectively harness the brain ’s plasticity and capacity for recovery have been gradually providing a more robust array of evidence to help guide practitioners. At the same time, new treatments, such as cryoneurolysis, are being incorporated into the management of long-term sequelae of stroke. In this special issue focusing on stroke rehabilitation, contributors review our current understanding of mechanisms involved in motor recovery and motor learning following stroke.
