About
Courtney Moran is a leading researcher in advanced prosthetics and human-machine interfacing, with a focus on restoring upper-limb function for individuals with limb loss. Her major contributions center on evaluating the real-world performance and control of sophisticated robotic arms, particularly through extended home-use studies. In her highly cited 2021 work (31 citations), she demonstrated that prolonged use of an osseointegrated prosthetic arm significantly improves function, performance, and control efficiency, providing critical evidence for the viability of these systems outside the lab. Moran also authored a notable 2019 case report on a congenital amputee who, after over 56 years of using a body-powered prosthesis, successfully controlled a Modular Prosthetic Limb using surface electromyography and pattern recognition—showcasing the adaptability of advanced interfaces even in long-term users. Her work bridges engineering, clinical rehabilitation, and neuroscience, offering practical insights into how next-generation prosthetics can enhance quality of life. By combining rigorous data logging with user-centered outcomes, Moran is helping to shape the future of bionic limb technology.
