About
Eun Jeong Jeon is a leading researcher in brain–machine interfaces and motor imagery, with a focus on restoring movement to individuals with severe motor disabilities. Her work centers on characterizing the neural and behavioral differences between kinesthetic motor imagery (KMI)—the proprioceptive or somatosensory imagination of movement—and visual motor imagery (VMI), which involves visualizing an action. In her most-cited study (2021, 80 citations), Jeon demonstrated that KMI elicits distinct brain activation patterns that are more effective for controlling robotic arms via brain–machine interfaces, particularly for disabled users who rely solely on imagery. This contribution has advanced the design of more intuitive and responsive neuroprosthetic systems. Her research bridges cognitive neuroscience and rehabilitation engineering, offering practical pathways for improving the quality of life for individuals with paralysis. Jeon’s work is widely recognized for its clarity and translational impact, making her a key figure in the development of next-generation assistive technologies.
