Most students are not given grant money for their research to hand out to those who participate in the study. Since it is intended to benefit those with the disability, that should be reward enough.

Central Standard Time, [email protected] writes: Hello everyone, We are a group of three students from Cornell University working on a school project for our Human-Computer Interaction class to create a tongue-based interface for enabling people with Spinal Cord Injury to more independently act on their environment in a subtle manner. To design this interface, we have been asked to interview several people living with SCI to become intimately familiar with their firsthand experiences of everyday living. Although this work is for class project, we are motivated to further pursue this kind of technology for practical use. It is our hope that we can help as many people with SCI as possible. Please let us know if you would be willing to assist us in this effort. We can be reached by email at [email protected].
