Project Kickoff
A science-driven, virtual reality solution for personalized aphasia rehabilitation after stroke.
SPARCS enables multi-patient, home-based therapy using immersive VR and explainable AI.
ABOUT THE PROJECT
What is SPARCS?
SPARCS stands for Science-based, Personalized Aphasia Rehabilitation Continuum after Stroke.
It brings together neuroscience, clinical expertise, and scalable digital technology to revolutionize the way aphasia is treated.
Why Aphasia?
Aphasia affects around 20% of stroke survivors. It impairs the ability to find and express words, despite intact understanding and motor speech.
Traditional therapies are often costly, isolated, and hard to access—SPARCS changes that.
81M
People live with effects of stroke
20%
of them
suffer from aphasia
Traditional
treatments are costly, passive, and difficult to scale
SPARCS
offers an interactive, active, and science-grounded alternative
TECHNOLOGY & INNOVATION
VR-based multi-user communication games
Patients collaborate remotely in real time via VR headsets in engaging language tasks.
Explainable AI (XAI)
Perzonalized models adapt theraphy intensity and predict outcomes, supporting clinical decisions.
Professional Dashboard
Clinicians can monitor, analyze, and adjust theraphy remotely through a secure web
