About

Jaime Ramos is a leading researcher in pediatric gait rehabilitation robotics, with a primary focus on developing and validating exoskeleton technologies for children with motor disabilities. Their work centers on cerebral palsy (CP) and spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), addressing the critical need for overground, body-weight-supported gait training that mimics natural walking conditions. Ramos’s major contributions include the clinical evaluation of the ATLAS2030 pediatric gait exoskeleton, demonstrating improvements in range of motion, strength, and spasticity in children with CP (28 citations), and a systematic review establishing the safety and efficacy of gait-assisted exoskeletons for pediatric populations (23 citations). They also led the design and validation of the NIMBLE robot, an ambulatory support system that prioritizes compliant, as-needed assistance for real-world rehabilitation. More recently, Ramos has advanced benchmarking methodologies for bipedal systems, including humanoid robots and exoskeletons, with a standardized procedure based on the Linear Inverted Pendulum Model. Their comprehensive scoping review on overground gait training robots further underscores their commitment to translating robotic assistance from controlled labs to functional, everyday mobility. With a growing citation impact and a clear trajectory toward clinical translation, Ramos is shaping the future of accessible, effective pediatric neurorehabilitation.
