About
Andrew Rowse is a researcher at the forefront of neurorehabilitation engineering, with a primary focus on bridging the critical gap between robotic technology and clinical practice. His work centers on the user-centred design of upper limb rehabilitation robots, ensuring these advanced tools are not only technically sound but also practical and effective for clinicians and patients. Rowse’s most impactful contribution, his 2020 study "Promoting clinical best practice in a user-centred design study of an upper limb rehabilitation robot" (13 citations), directly addresses the slow adoption of robotic devices in mainstream therapy. By systematically investigating the objectives and limitations of these systems from the clinician’s perspective, he provides a vital framework for designing robots that enhance, rather than complicate, therapeutic workflows. This human-centred approach is pivotal for translating promising engineering into real-world clinical gains. Rowse’s work is essential reading for anyone in rehabilitation robotics, demonstrating that true innovation requires not just technical prowess, but a deep empathy for the end-user—the therapist and the patient.
