About

Christian Lunetta is a leading researcher at the intersection of neurology, rehabilitation, and digital health, with a primary focus on amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and stroke recovery. His work pioneers the integration of emerging technologies—including telehealth, assistive robotics, and neural interfaces—to transform patient management and rehabilitation outcomes. Lunetta’s most cited paper (2022, 28 citations) provides a comprehensive overview of how these technologies can enhance care for ALS patients, addressing critical gaps in accessibility and monitoring. He is also advancing evidence-based rehabilitation through the STROKEFIT4 study (2025), a multicentre randomised controlled trial that rigorously evaluates the effectiveness, acceptability, and economic sustainability of Robots and Allied Digital Technologies (RADTs) from the subacute to chronic phase of stroke recovery. Additionally, his exploration of semi-autonomous avatars (2024) highlights a novel approach to supporting clinicians in home and hospital environments. With a growing citation impact and a commitment to pragmatic, patient-centred research, Lunetta is shaping the future of neurorehabilitation by bridging cutting-edge technology with real-world clinical needs.
