About
Raziyeh Baghi is a researcher at the intersection of biomechanics, neural control, and rehabilitation engineering, with a primary focus on understanding and mitigating the mechanical factors underlying knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Her work addresses how the body modulates joint stiffness and movement to control contact forces during interactions with the environment. A key contribution is her development of EMG-based methods to simultaneously estimate joint angle and torque during hand interactions, enabling more natural control of prosthetic and assistive devices (7 citations). In the realm of KOA, Baghi has pioneered the use of functional electrical stimulation (FES) of the lateral knee muscles to reduce peak knee adduction moment (pKAM), a critical biomechanical risk factor, demonstrating significant reductions in a pilot study (3 citations). She has also advanced personalized gait interventions, developing methods to determine individualized foot progression angles and step widths that minimize medial compartment loading without inducing unnatural walking patterns (2 citations each). Her recent work quantitatively assesses the relationship between knee pain, proprioception, and tibial rotation in KOA patients (1 citation). Baghi’s research offers promising, patient-specific strategies for non-invasive KOA management and rehabilitation.
