About
B. Conway is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation engineering, with a primary focus on restoring mobility for individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). Their work bridges the gap between quantitative biomechanics and robotic rehabilitation, developing novel tools to assess and enhance functional recovery. A key contribution is the creation of sensitive, objective outcome measures for gait and strength, as demonstrated in their highly cited 2010 paper (50 citations) on a Clinical Initiative for assessing recovery after SCI. Conway’s research has pioneered the use of portable gait assessment tools (21 citations) and isometric torque measurements (17 citations) to validate the efficacy of robot-assisted gait training. They have also advanced the fundamental understanding of human locomotion by modeling reflex control of robotic gait using human walking data (12 citations), and designed kinematic models for early rehabilitation devices. Notably, Conway has explored brain-computer interfaces for wheelchair control, showcasing a commitment to assistive technology for severe paralysis. With over 110 total citations, their work directly impacts clinical practice by providing validated, low-cost tools for objective rehabilitation assessment.
