About
Dr. Aixian Liu is pioneering the intersection of soft robotics and neurorehabilitation, with a focused mission to transform post-stroke recovery. Her research centers on developing intelligent, patient-specific rehabilitation systems that bridge the gap between human neural activity and assistive technology. Dr. Liu’s most notable contribution is the design of a bioinspired, smart triboelectric soft pneumatic actuator for hand rehabilitation robots (2025, 26 citations), which addresses the critical challenge of objectively quantifying post-stroke spasticity—a task traditionally reliant on subjective clinical scales. She is also a leading voice in personalized brain-machine interface (BMI) rehabilitation. Her 2022 work (16 citations) advocates for tailoring BMI training based on individual neural reorganization patterns, moving beyond one-size-fits-all protocols. Further, she has developed methods to recognize and evaluate the individualized sensorimotor loop in stroke patients using brain functional connectivity analysis (2022, 9 citations), ensuring that the closed-loop interaction between brain and machine is genuinely therapeutic. By integrating EEG-based assessment with adaptive robotic feedback, Dr. Liu’s work is laying the groundwork for truly personalized, data-driven neurorehabilitation, offering new hope for restoring motor function after neurological injury.
