About
D. Mazevet is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, with a focus on understanding and quantifying the mechanical and neural components of muscle stiffness following neurological injury. Her work has been instrumental in distinguishing active, neurally mediated contributions from passive, structural changes in muscle tone, particularly in the ankle plantar flexors. This distinction is critical for developing targeted treatments for spasticity and contracture in conditions such as stroke, spinal cord injury, and multiple sclerosis. Her highly cited 2010 paper, which has garnered over 118 citations, provides a foundational framework for clinicians and researchers to assess and manage impaired motor function. By bridging biomechanics and clinical neurology, Mazevet’s contributions have advanced the precision of rehabilitation interventions, offering clearer pathways to improve mobility and quality of life for patients with central nervous system disorders. Her work remains a key reference for those studying muscle tone abnormalities and their treatment.
